Blood Rose Lament

I kept my eyes dry, not because I wished to be strong,
but because the world already drowned in its own tears.
If mine should fall, they would bloom into roses,
red as silence after gunfire, red as the lips
that once whispered your name.

You left with brushes in your hands,
promising to paint me a dawn.
Instead the horizon was painted with smoke,
and every stroke of your absence
pressed deeper into my skin.

Now I sit among shadows,
my beauty a useless lantern,
my sorrow a veil too heavy to lift.
The mirror does not show my face,
it shows generations of women
waiting at the same window,
their hearts breaking like glass
each time history repeats its song.

If you ever return,
find me not by my smile
but by the roses scattered at my feet.
Touch them
and your fingers will bleed with love
that never had the chance to live.
