Blood

Its the color of her dress

The way she dances on the floor

Its the color of her undying lips

When she kissed you like never before

Its the colors of her screams

Anger hurling towards you

Its the color of the sky

When she parts with a sad Adieu

Its the color of her blood

Splattered all across the carpet

Its the color of my shirt

Just heavily blooming scarlet

Its the color of her dress

This time lowering her into the grave

Its the color of my roses

And because of them I forgave

But little did I know

Was the gun clenched in her hand

But I did not depress or sadden

For I too understand
