Red

Coursing through the veins

I feel you flowing effortlessly through me.

Troving my body,

keeping me safe, and alive.

We are one;

between the skin and bone,

we meet on unfortunate circumstances.

I follow you through the darkness,

your calloused hand in mine,

we walk through haunted corridoors that lead to no where

and yet, the adventure is fufilling.

One foot in front of the other

One step is all it takes.

I am aloof, to your petrified ways,

and still, you find me; afraid.

These putrid thoughts gallop in my mind

like a stalion, pacing the stalls of an unwanted cage,

I am filled with sorrow,

filled with unbridled rage

I was yellow,

a color I never worshiped until I found you,

you are Red,

And yet; we are fused.
