Red

Hot red burning me

The sultry taste of my desire

Could disappear

Trapped it's mine


Mine to behold and cherish

Other's don't deserve this

Greed caused pain


Red embers

Red carpeting the ground

Ancestors cry out

Cursing my name


Bare my body, a newborn babe

Freshly exposed, others won't know

Restarting history

Give the Earth a second chance


God will be awestruck

A mere mortal doing his job

He flooded the earth blue

That was too calm


I will wrap it in Red

Passionate as sin

If He can do it

Why can't I?
