{This is an older one from 1998 and probably a few spelling errors too.}

Dead flowers upon my lips.

Dead flowers upon my hips.

Dead flowers upon my hair.

Dead flowers every where.

Dead flowers upon my skin.

Dead flowers come from my voice with in.

Dead flowers upon my eyes.

Dead flowers to disquise all the lies.

Dead flowers upon my love.

Dead flowers to be carried away upon the wings of a rotting dove.

Dead flowers upon my hands.

Dead flowers entwined in my fingers like wedding bands.

Dead flowers upon my soul.

Dead flowers where no other dares go.

Dead flowers upon my mind.

Dead flowers to let others know I am far from blind.

Dead flowers upon my arms.

Dead flowers to captivate all my charm.

Dead flowers upon my chest.

Dead flowers to tether me in my eternal rest.

Dead flowers upon my sepulcher.

Dead flowers to silence my screams forever.

This is very dark and you use an excellent metaphor to express the pain and decay.

Well done, it has a powerful flow to it.

Take care,
