Red

All I can see is red, as I feel the blood
Dripping on the floor. Your fire engine red
Lipstick smeared and used to write on
The bathroom mirror. The high heels that
You strut in like a supermodel. That tight
Red dress that hugs your curves in all
The right places and leaves me completely
Speechless. The color of your fingernails as
They glisten in the moonlight. The fire coming
Out of your soul like a fiery demon and spirit.
The color of blood pumping and coursing
Through your system like an adrenaline rush.
There is the flash of red when you get angry
Or mad. The color that appears when
Your eyes become bloodshot and tired.
The blush of your cheeks when you get
Flustered or embarrassed. The apple you
Sink and bite your teeth into like a vampire.
The color of fall leafs as they fall gently
Around your feet. Red is everywhere
Around you and it is hard to make my
Escape because you keep drawing me in.
It all makes my head spin as I am becoming
Addicted to what you embrace and hold.
