A broken home
With an upstanding nature
Filled with secrets and lies
Through the house
Up the stairs
A deadly secret
A fearful lie
Peer through the keyhole
And watch the horror take place
Within the shadows
Truth hides
The color of anger
The color of red
A floating orb
A dancing balloon
A terrible tragedy
The death of the owner
Gone in smoke and ashes
All that’s left
A color of anger
