Black Tears From A Deep-Red Rose...

when a deep-red rose
cries a tear
it's not just a tear
it's sorrow
and it's grief
and it shows you a darker beauty
how something that beautiful
could give away
what only angels of darkness
should see
and then share with everyone
who's feeling down
giving them a drop of beauty
not to light up
as it's dark itself
but to show them
that also darkness
is
beauty.
