Red balloon,
She colored in black...
Till it popped

The author's comments:
The red balloon represents strong emotions. Black is symbolic of depression, mystery or secrecy and it popping symbolizes unrealized dreams.

When life gives you lemons make iced tea because you make your own paths in life not fallowing behind others, true love never dies, don't give up on your dreams, if you shoot for the moon and miss don't worry because you'll land among the stars.
