The Color Red
It’s warmth from the fire,
Expanding, expanding, and expanding until I struggle to breathe
The color of my palpitating heart as it teethes,
Through the night and delicately hums in a silent choir
A prompted dragon in a lonely fairy tale,
Slayed by warriors in gold
That kill off creatures foretold,
That tumble the water and drink the ale
As they struggle to find love & compassion,
Going home to a broken home
Two elements of a color in vogue fashion
It’s warmth from the fire,
Expanding, expanding, and expanding until I struggle to breathe
The color of my palpitating heart as it teethes,
Through the night and delicately hums in a silent choir
The royal color of castle dorms,
Walls cry as they are painted with portraits of goddesses & gods
Edges of solid furniture scrape the walls like claws
A painter lives there mastering crimson storms
