HAIL MARY

Red will be the last color i see before i die
and in the final moonlight
A scarlet so bright
it bleeds into my mind
leaves me dead on a stone
with color in my face
And it will be all that my life has ever known

it was the first color i did see
a stifled cry into the soft sheets
wipe the blood from my eyes
and kiss my rosy cheek

i started out in life with an apple green and red
never did i taste it
only watched it getting smaller
and my half become a quarter
