Image for the poem Scarlet

Scarlet

Sullied blazing blood flowing down my skin,
Scarlet droplets trickling into the tender chalice flower,
Stained with rotten hemorrhage clouding its white petals.
When I turn into an empty, sallow corpse,
Purify the darkening sanguine of any mottles,
Revive me from my own remnants.
