A sadness fills my heart
Some things never change

It is like a death
Now things I must rearrange

Mourning for a love
That was destined not to be

I must face things as they are
A grim reality

Roses are so beautiful
The Black Rose a poignant sight

Like love so rare and beautiful
When found a true delight

It seems to send a message
Life holds no guarantees

Death and taxes
Are the only certainties

Love is exhilarating
Like a roller coaster ride

When the ride is over
It's like a part of you has died

You know I'll always love you
You're deep inside my heart

You say it doesn't have to end
But I knew from right from the start

You love that I love you
In you I fill a need

Love for you inside of me
Grows abundantly as a wild weed

Roses don't live forever
They wither and they die

But you, my rose, will flourish
Fed by the tears I cry

You'll always be my Black Rose
So rare and so divine

I'll always cherish and adore you
Wishing always you were mine
