Red was a color she adored without fear
She dreamed of beautiful red roses soft to the touch with thorns so sharp
Her boyfriend believed she was already spoiled enough
She watched her dad give her mom red roses every week
She wanted a love so dear like that
Her life was perfect
Nothing could ruin the blissful effect
One day her dad stopped giving her mom flowers
He turned to the thorns of the roses and cut her out it seemed
She begged him for forgiveness but that is only what she dreamed
Mom was lifeless leaving her heart out open to bleed
Screaming, weeping, begging was all that daughter could hear
One day dad decided he never wanted to be near
Precious daddy's little girl he never loved so dear
Shattered hearts and a broken family to show
He knew the end was near
What could a girl do?
She turned to her noble friend red
She thought the sting of the pain could wipe away all the memories captivated in her brain
Red never left her feeling empty
She relied on the relief of red every day
She masked her scars so well
Her family, friends, and boyfriend tried to save her before it was too late
Little did they know she had her own plan to make
Lying in her room feeling hopeless
She turned to her noble friend red
The blissful color of defeat
Red took away every last drop of agony she felt
On the ground bleeding was the last place she knelt
Next to her were the beautiful red roses covered in the color she loved so dear
