Red

The sunset as he kisses you goodnight
The tear stained eyes that still cry
The knotting inside your chest
It's the aura of your love
The color of your fists when you see him with her
The color of her lips when he bites them
The blood that rushes to your heart and
Causes it to race
The color of the A you want to stamp to her chest
The veins in your wrist that scream for release
Her cheeks as he whispers sweet nothings into her ear
Just like he did you
It's the pleasure she feels
As he loves her like he did you
The color of the sheets when you find her in your bed
The look in your eyes when you knew it all along
It's the mark of the beast
The poison you take
As the blood soaks into the sheets and your eyes cry
It's the velvet lining of the gun's case
When you put it away
It's the smile on your face when he walks through the door
It's the rage in his eyes
And you realize
He doesn't love you anymore
It's the tramp stamp on her back
With a Japanese dragon
It's the fading light of the room
It's the sunset as you die
And you smile
Because she's dead too
It's the crazy look in your eyes
When your final words are
"She's dead, I'm dead. Now you don't have to choose."
