Rubies.
Deep burning red
Frozen yet flowing, like blood
Dancing with overwhelming passion
Like a possessive lover
Yet flirting with the fire in your furious eyes
Warming, soothing, pulsating light like
The dancing fire on a cold winter’s night
Drops of crystallized love, dangling from a golden chain
Inches from infatuation’s grasp
The entire spectrum of deadly flames, within one glittering orb
When you are pulled from the earth, you sit
Among the dirt like apples of the earth
Dripping from the branches, waiting
To be grasped by greedy hands longing for
Your approving stare of wisdom
Of the years captured in a single teardrop
Reaching for the soft glimmer of the roses trapped in a solid shell
Red, is not enough of a word
Too simple of a word, to describe
The elation, the joy of your summer mood
Or the peaceful repose during your autumn state of mind
The entire world, the entire shade of red
Resting on the shoes of a girl lost in a strange world.
