Red

It's his favorite colour
It is the main hue in my hair
My lips against his
The shade of my cheeks

Mixed with orange
it creates fire

Take from purple
You're given blue

Celebrate it
with green on a Christmas tree
or white for our flag

It's strawberries on a summer day
or apples in the fall
A rose for a lover

And it's your blood that you draw
from saddened skin with angered blow

It's his favorite colour
