What is red?


Red is the pigment of roses 

Or the color of a suit he chose for his 

Red is the smell of strawberries 

And the ambition cursing through an aires

Red is hearts that will still beat from up above

Or the pain you feel when you’re truly in love

Red is the flash of a red flag 

from someone who is is not so good but very bad

Red is the spice and sting of a chili pepper 

And the awareness in the word “hepper”

Red is the color of his suit

And the color of her flowers

Red is the bees that never stop to sting

Red is the color in their wedding rings

Reminds me of a book I'm reading and a scribble I wrote. Feels like a reminder of a flip side to everything, but that the flip side can be a twisted love and an adoration so toxic it's beautiful.
