Purple

crimson lipstick

and rosy cheeks

hot, wet tears

she never thought she'd

see you die

lying on the ground

 

and you

pallid features

stone cold cheeks

ice engulfs

your heart.

blue and blue

surrounds your body

as death claims your space

your icy lips,

wordless.

quiet.

 

and then.

a moment-

their lips did fuse

and for a second

created purple
