I Don'T

I don't wear red she said It reminds me of lives past I now lay in red she said As I lay here from the blast. I don't wear black she said Only when they carried me out They covered me in black she said But I want to scream and shout. I don't wear white she said It's what they covered me in I now wear white she said It covers all my skin. I don't like coffins she said Now this is where I abide The coffin is where I sleep she said Since the day that I died. © Hazel
