Red Roses, White Blood

i watched and waited

i stood and cried

the world had seen

what´s behind my eyes

they saw the monster

the growling beast

now i wish

the pain would cease

i can´t smile

i can´t laugh

for my humor

took a dark path

i´m scared of walking

i can´t even breathe

i wish i was dead

to make time freeze

i´m scared to say hi

or even wave

i can´t do anything

they have my grave

so i say this

before i die

if anyone asks

just say i´m nearby

I liked the rhythm and the flow of this poem. Well written.
