Dark Times


 

Red 

One signal for danger 

Or balanced as love

But it throughout the scene 

From our heart beats 

To some flares

You'll notice it scattered 

Darkness 

In the night 

Once was frightened of gloom 

But now it's as a friend

I sit here wondering if your there 

If you still care 

Hurting and hoping 

That I'll yet be here
