Description
A cold rain falls upon the floor
bursting in extravagance
and pouring into streams;
A blue balloon in his hand
tired & shamed
held in warmth and love
yet still colored in hate
and as strings break loose
and fly free from ball to chain
blue turns to red
as touch hits air
and burns shame away;
A past in fire
new memories for freespace
yet meet only rain to hold red down
and put out the flame
in which sin hides
and he holds red again
face flush with joy
red turns to blue
as chain clutches back to ball;
and as age hardens his face
blue is forgotten
and red is never felt again
