Good one. Personally I favour a deep red rose, dried out. Maybe a bunch of them in an old violin case.
Sorry it's so similar to yours.

Mine would be a black rose, wolves, fire, fog/mist, and a cross like my first tatoo is going to be a cross on fire with a black rose rapped around it

Same here.
I also love the absolutely disgusting, yet hillarious, imagery in "To His Coy Mistress". I'm not a big romantic, so if any guy ever had the balls to write Carpe Diem poetry for me, he'd be generously rewarded (after I finished laughing).
