The Liquid of Life and Loss

December 7, 2020

It’s angry, raging through the veins,

Keeping you alive, and flowing through the brain.

It’s a sign of death on a crime scene,

Pumping out of the heart, keeping it clean.

A symbol of Jesus during Passover,

But when it stops, you die, and it’s over.

Blood connects both my dream occupation and my favorite color. When I'm older, I want to be a trauma surgeon, and my favorite color is red.
