I sit and watch a rose shed delicate tears <br /> Dazzling crystal droplets falling from the petals <br /> Shimmering facets against the sun light <br /> Rainbow colours grace the glow, beauty with sadness <br /> Falling, slowly sliding down to the ensnaring thorns <br /> Where no one see's and no one really knows <br /> Disappearing deep into the mossy earth <br /> A sililoquy of silent tears never known <br /> Enscapulated through dark sunken eyes <br /> With verse, inspiration and remorse <br /> The rose given in endeering love <br /> But withered through the dry years <br /> Forgotten are the days of love <br /> Leaving remnants of what was and will be no more <br /> Where no one see's and no one really knows <br />The tears shed by the forgotten rose...<br /><br />DEEP DARK SOUL POET<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/beauty-with-sadness/
