Favorite Quote:
"Numquam finitur, donec vita finiatur."
- K. D'Angelo Alexander


The color of love, red


The color of anger, red


The color of blood, red


The color we all dread


Love, anger, and blood:


All found in bed


Sometimes not in that order,


But better left unsaid


One who loves anger, and blood


Will often end up dead


Slowly into the Forest of Truth, 


Do I dare tread


A person who loves pain,


Most likely was misled


For love is not anger;


Although they are both red


The author's comments:

Describing emotions/feelings, and connotations with the color red, this poem follows the same rhyme-scheme throughout the entirety of its length, besides line eleven. It also describes very clearly and explicitly that love and anger, or pain shouldn't be together.
