Life centered around death,
Would you admire the wilting of a black rose?
The dark charm of the ceasing being,
In a strange twisted way,
It's sad but it's beautiful.
Do we look upon extinction as a favored element?
Expecially when you lose the courage to live.
And the fear that destroys your strength,
What happens to your balance and harmony?
The will of seeing tomorrow is slipping away,
What if today is the destined last?
