Red

 

To signify the pulse between my veins

Escaping outside

            Of my paper-thin skin

 

To identify who you are

       As you are choking me

In my sleep

 

To wash down the sex

     Of a dirty pedophile

                        Who left me a broken and dead son

 

To simplify all the hatred

            Behind your eyes

 

To extinguish the fire

     In my soul
