Drops of Crimson

Drops of crimson
from the crown fade
onto the lace of my tears
out of mercy for me

Confused in contemplation
I cry and am stained
by the crimson from a stripped rose
as it blushes my cheek.

Who am I that you bow so I may stand?
When all I can do right now is fall?
Your mercy entwined in the lace that adorns my skin
Who am I at all?
