Red

A cave hidden in the forest beyond Crimson waters flow out, The wolves seek out the source Only to find her bleeding soul. Slithering stream reflect her demons Trapped inside the illusory web of sunshine, Waiting to ravish her tonight As the sky becomes moonless again. Scarlet lips talk of the forbidden words Staining the white garbs of hypocrisy, Bloodshot eyes continue to fight And mock the lies told truthfully. Vermilion marks became the stars Deafening howls quietened the silence, An explosion consumed all that was, And the night was red.
