Unbearable Beauty In Red

red
an inbetween of hate
and lust

red
like your sheets
and hair

red
walking together under dim street lights
and auburn skies

red
staying in your bed for days
and still feeing lonely

red
speaking mistakefully while screaming at each other
and hoping youll leave this time

red
an inbetween of hate
and lust
