Blood Red

 you're an artist
and all you paint is red
 red as a sea of blood
lapping at your feet when you walk
 this oasis
i'm blind with this blood i shed
 this ceremony
ending what could have been to
 what is this?
i'll just spend my life in my head
 retracing scars
turning them blood red
 you're an artist
paint me a portrait
 bloody with its brilliance
i'll provide the paint
 just give me a moment
reopen my scars
 dip the brush and heal me
