i am the author of the poem Roses Bleed Black. i let alostandbrokensoul post that poem on here before i joined. i added a bit to it.
The onslaught never ceased
She winced under the attack
They would not stop hurting her
Roses bleed black
Huddled in a corner
With red stripes upon his back
His daddy used the belt again
Roses bleed black
She thought he married her for love
But reality came with a smack
The bruises on her arms and legs
Are proof that Roses bleed black
They were all a way to hide the pain
Marijuana, speed and crack
The only escape to another world
Roses bleed black
Her bruised body was found
In a small wooden shack
A broken soul we all forgot
Roses bleed black
He was sixteen years old
His name enscribed on a polished plaque
The only memory of his life
Roses bleed black
The onslaught never ceased
She winced under the attack
They would not stop hurting her
Roses bleed black
Huddled in a corner
With red stripes upon his back
His daddy used the belt again
Roses bleed black
She thought he married her for love
But reality came with a smack
The bruises on her arms and legs
Are proof that Roses bleed black
They were all a way to hide the pain
Marijuana, speed and crack
The only escape to another world
Roses bleed black
Her bruised body was found
In a small wooden shack
A broken soul we all forgot
Roses bleed black
He was sixteen years old
His name enscribed on a polished plaque
The only memory of his life
Roses bleed black
