Maroon

If I could be a colour, I would be maroon,

As dark as blood, as scary as a loud thud, 

I would be maroon,

Not because it's a unique colour,

But because it reminds me,

The feeling you get while losing someone,

Or as they say, the fear of it, 

If I were to be a colour,

I would be maroon,

The bittersweet taste of wine,

And a person's eyes screaming depth,

The lips of someone you love,

With a tiny hint of red,

The brightness of a Ruby,

And the beauty of a rose,

The passion of a warrior,

And the story of two lovers who were once foes,

If I were to be a colour,

Without anyway question,

I would be maroon.
