Red

By bedazzled •
Red
Icy scarlet,
paint me
in your monochrome
palette.
Swirl tsunamis
on my surface,
silent storms
over my eyes.
Cold crimson,
hide me
in the colours of
your exhale.
Tracing zigzags
through my
veins,
you are stalking through
my blood cells.
You can keep your art,
every picture
you create.
Echoes speak;
there’s no
liberation
from
the red.
