The Brave and the Broken

Red Essence

Red, you are the color of roses in the

Deep springtime breeze.

Red, the color of the leaves on the trees

In the autumn breeze.

Red, you seek passion and love but

You are also angry and deterred.

You are the color of the sun and stars that

shine bright in the middle of the night.

Red, you spend your days flying as you are the

Cardinal from heaven that soars to deliver long lost

messages to us.

Red, shines as bright as the stars I see in the

night sky.

Red you are the thermometer on a hot day that

Says get out of the house it's warm out.

Red you are the color that every heartfelt couples

dream romance and drive that helps them fight

battles in which we drive. And stay alive.

You are the color that courses through all of our

veins and keeps us going and it makes us all the

same.
