Her crystal ball held his fears of the future,
for she painted over the scars of his past.
Her jaded eyes were in denial of the life before him.
Her hands held his ribcage like no one ever could.
Traced in black,
her locks
fell
against
his side,
hiding his secrets within her jaded eyes.
Lips seeping with his secrets,
she blew away his pain to the silver blade,
stabbed between roses as black as night.
