Black Rose Dead

I don't own Evangelion. If I did it would be even more twisted than it already is.

This is for M Katsuragi, hope you like it ^^

I lie in my watery coffin

The scented coverings suffocating me

The shifting mattress lukewarm mere

My flush blossom begins to wither

I cradle the roses

Tight in my arms

They dig in my pale wrists

Their thorns split veins and arteries

And burrow in deep

My flesh rips anew

The rivers of sorrow

Sing a keening mantra

My stems been cut

My flower decapitated

My leafy branches picked

And crushed

My roots have been pulled free

Stability is lost to me

I grip my deathbed bouquet

The thorns dig ever deeper

They crawl through the spider webbed windows

Of my slowing heart

And quell the pain

With merciful finality

The sweep to cover

The mattress loses substance

A looming shadow motions shut

And gestures on

My abrupt and tragic end

And as I start to fall apart

I smile and let it go

The black rose petals crumple and tear

The other flowers lament

The roses are died forever red

Lost in the wilderness

Of encroaching weeds

Is

Black

Rose

Dead

As usual explanation is required. I used a lot of metaphors there for her sinking in the LCL and dying there. The lukewarm mattress is the waves under her, I couldn't think how I should write that and I'm not happy with it. I think the rest is alright
