Oddly enough, I love the color of maroon more than red

it's darker, sharpened, like a mixture of pride and some things unsaid

As it pass by, it will always catch my eye

As if it's monitoring me, knowing he's worthy of a sigh

If maroon was a person, he's someone who would dominate my silence

And cover this tingling ache of stress puff into zest

He'd be someone to cheer up and boost this existence

of mine who would be blue in times of face buried in desks

It seems as though maroon and I have the same purpose

in this life, and that is to unite the things in opus

I do not know why in this color I'm so attracted like a moth caught into flame

and there's not flame with a color of maroon so what's to blame?

Valentines, red here and everywhere

Sometimes I smack my face, wondering if I'm the only one searching for you near?

Cause more than a light, you're a ball of deep chaotic maroon yarn mush into you

Thanks for existing, now I'm not blue
