In the darkness it’s clear as day-
A silver silhouette:
A body lying motionless
In a pool of deep regret.
The shadow of what once had been;
Of a rose with twisted thorns…
A fallen angel stranded here
She’s Innocent no more.
On this night, she hid alone
And whispered a quiet goodbye.
She hung her head in the silence
Tears brimming her eyes- but did not cry.
She took each knife with bitter pride-
And never said a word.
To even reconsider now
Would surely be absurd.
In the darkness it’s clear as day-
A silver silhouette.
The shadow of what once had been
And of a fate…
Never met.

Very nice, yet again.
If I didn't know better, I'd think that this may be a "self descriptive" poem...at least in regards to your SN.
Suggestions- in stanza 4 line 3 & 4, I'd consider removal of "even" and replacement of "surely" with "truly", although I'm not completely happy with that either...
Stanza 5, the least invasive fix: change line 4 to "Of a fate envisioned".
Tasty stuff. *smack * smack* 4/5

- Again, one of my favorites of your material. I like the vocabulary you use, and the picture I get in my mind.
