The blue rose

The rose floated within the blackness
The color of a pale blue covered each delicate,velvet petal
But rose was imperfect for the color of my sin stained the beautiful flower
A red,a beautiful, horrible, lovely, deadly red
And the sound as it ran off the petal
Drip drip,into the abyss
Drip drip, into the chasm
Into my dying soul

I am usually not one to read free verse poetry, but this is absolutely outstanding. Even I love the way this is written, excellent job. This is one of the only free verse poems I have ever read and loved, keep up the great work.
