RED CANDLES

I disagree,
On how they define colors

They say red is for happiness
But look at the blood's color
Oozing red
You're in pain

That bloody moon in the night sky
Brings bad luck to some

They say red represents love,
So is that goodbye letter he left
Written in red ink
A love ended

And for red burning candles
For some it's happiness
That's being celebrated
But I define it,
A soul screaming in sorrow.
