Red,
The colour of blood on the battle field, where many have fought and many have died.
It is the colour of anger, rage, and fury; distracting you from the truth, too blinded by what you know.
The colour of embarrassment, when you feel humiliated or when your heart beats a million miles a minute.
Red, the colour of fire, the ever-changing beauty. Fire can burn down forests, destroying everything in its path; it even takes lives.
But that same flame can warm someone, saving them from the freezing winter; that same flame can light the path for hundreds, illuminating their path and preventing them from getting lost.
Though, it is also the colour of passion, the feeling of joy that you get from doing something you love.
It is the colour of love, the sweet, deep feeling that is always different for everybody.
The feeling that can build someone up, taking away all their pain and sorrows no matter how bad it was; it saved them.
But it is also the feeling that can destroy someone, the pain of a broken heart forever changing them, forever scarring them; making them succumb to temporary happiness.
