Red.

The color of many things.

The color of victory and gain,

The color of blood and pain.

The color of madness and anger,

The color of a wound getting bigger.

The color of love and the sunset, the sun rise, and the heat.

The color of the moon's eclipse,

The blood dripping down his lips.

The color of evil and its plots....

The color of truth, it's worth a shot.

The color of youth, and stubborn mistakes.

The color of smarts, realizing the stakes.

The color of fear, and things to hold dear. 

The color of secrets, as a fight draws near. 

The color of a false friend, an imposter, a fake.

The color of the eye of evil as it wakes...
