The color of his eyes after one too many drinks. The color of the light he ran because he "couldn't think." The color of his face whenever I did something wrong. The color of love although for me that color's gone. The color of the lipstick she left there on his cheek. The color of the underwear found in his car that week. The color of the Valentine he gave to me that year. The color that he glowed when he watched me drown in tears. The color of the mark that slap left on his face. The color of the blood in his mouth that he could taste. The color of that power button that turned me on and off. The color of the germs in that cheating cough. The color of the gas can used to drench his floors. The color of the lighter that helped those bright flames soar. The color of the truck that intended to save the day. Red's the color of the ashes when you threw it all away.
