Empty Beauty :Prolouge

If Time were everything,we do not have anything.
Yet, Time is not everything,
so why do we save Time?

A Rose is colourless,no matter what colour it is,
for what else is it besides beauty with no meaning?

Yet, I would give Time for a Rose.
If I did not have such meaningless beauty to admire,
What would Time be to me but an endless void with no colour?

I would try to colour the Rose with Love,
but is Love anything besides a hopeless illusion we drown ourselves in?
A kiss might restore it to its innocent state,
but what is a kiss but an empty promise?
So fragile a kiss.
all I can do is watch from afar,all that beauty which I cannot have.

Gold is beautiful and rare,
but is it worth anything when heated?
For Gold is only precious in its true form,
cold to the touch.
Love cannot touch me,I am beautiful in this way.
Your feeble attempts to warm my heart will always fail.

My eyes remain cold and your desire mirrors them.
Your cold-blooded desire to change me.
And though you are not a Rose,
I will admire your exquisite beauty all the same.

You are the same as a Rose,worth the waste of my Time.
For besides your empty beauty,
there is nothing else you can give me.
Your emerald eyes are cold,
no longer filled with the warmth I knew.
That should be the way,
for emeralds are cold,it is part of their beauty.

You see, I could never colour the Rose,
for I am devoid of Love.
A kiss of mine would do no good,
for it is just another promise which I would break.
Like I broke your heart when I tell you this.
So I can only watch from afar,all that beauty I cannot touch.

Your words have no use,you cannot captivate me.
Nothing but your endless beauty can.
Your pleas mean nothing,only your innocence does.
It tells me to preserve that innocence,more so I will taint it.

Your heart,body and soul is mine.
I can crush it like that Rose.
I only have room for beauty,
nothing else.

Even then,I cannot say I Love beauty.
It only keeps its value for as long as it fascinates me.
Then,it is of no meaning anymore,
no matter how beautiful the thing was before.

You are beyond Time,worth more than anything to me.
Your fascinating beauty has entralled me.
I find it in the fragileness of your body,more so your heart.
Like a broken Rose...

I cannot do anything to ease your pain and suffering.
I am not sure if I want to.
That would lessen all your beauty.
So all I can do is watch from afar,
all that beauty I cannot Love.

So, on with the story.Could you guess anything I asked you to guess???You could answer mi questions in the review.:)
