This is just short poem I wrote about Vincent reflecting on his love with Lucrecia. The first ever poem I've written, but I enjoyed writing it and I hope you like it too.


Forever in Night

For I live only to reflect.
Only to regret.
Forever to see my eyes met
With the bittersweet neglect
That your truest two reveal.

My love is, was, the wildest black rose.
Untamed it grew in your wake,
A love of such dark intensity
That none else made sense to me.

And oft I pondered; would it be my love you take?
And Doubts brought forth a stem of thorns
And they would not let my heart ache,
Would not let my heart break
For You.

Too often, did that prick of scarlet drip
From your fingertip.
And when as such soft kissing breezes, came each of your sighs,
That they wore upon these sharpened defenses;
I would cry
For I knew,
I knew but remain'd helpless to,
What would become of You and I.

And now, the rose has met the bitter frost of thine eyes,
It wilts, and dies.
A thousand satin tears fall to the wintry ground,
Black on white.
Black on white.
I shatter into darkness so obscure,
I cannot see the light,
I cannot see light,
You have left me forever in night.

You have left me for always in night.
And I cannot return.
