Every shade of it reflects your soul's painful hue
Like the sky as vast as your mind
Or the sea as deep as my desire for you
You're the color in the box I could never find
You're the reason I can only wear denim jeans
I envision you in every single blue seam
And whenever I dream, I choose to fly
So I can experience you in my blue dream
That's why I constantly catch myself gazing at the sky
Even when I close my eyes, there's an absence of black
Everything that has to do with you reflects nothing but blue
I drowned in your ocean
Floated too high up into your ozone
I beg of you, please give me myself back
Cut me
Cut me deep
Blood starts to seep
But it is not red, you see
I'm spewing out an ocean of blue
Even as oxygen attacks my blood
The blue is protected as I am filled with nothing but you
So much of you that I died, drowning in my beautiful blue flood
Red.
The color of your sheets,
silken on your bed.
The color of your lips,
from which I cling to every word said.
The color of my blood
which fuels my aching heart
bleeding out love when we're apart.
Bleeding out love when I see your face,
the lines and curves of your body
I love to trace.
Bleeding out love when I bite my lips
holding back the deluge of telling you this ; I love you, I love you red.
I want to be tangled within the sheets of your bed.
I want to wrestle those lips painted red.
Burgundy nails down my back leaving streaks of red.
Visions of you and I dancing through my head.
I love you, burning, achingly red.
My heart bleeding out lovely rivulets of red.
