In Color

Scarlet, fierce, passion
It's just
a filter for anger
A filter on love
The color of pain
When you can't face the blood
The color of fame
When more wasn't enough
life comes and it bursts
It thunders in the dark
With ferocious colors
That fade and fall apart
In beautiful explosions
I feel in my heart
We go through the motions
Feeling in color
But living illusions
Red
Roses he never gave
Red
Kisses that were a waste
Red
The feeling of love
But you can't think straight
Was our love filled with red?
Burning with passion
Now blackened and dead
Our love was red
It was. It was,
Spilled blood
on Broken bones
Scars open
And getting old
Even if you were blind
You could see the colors
The world tries to hide
Emotions in the dark
Covered up with their pride
Empty
Gone after the spark
Temporary
Feeling In color
But living illusions
