Maroon

It started as a joke but then my mouth refused to laugh
He looked into my future
Wanting more than just a past
But I kept him in his car
And his effort lacked the truth
Nothing from that mouth whispered pain of handsome youth
His golden face impressed me we fought a constant war
The magazines gripped at my thoughts and I sent him to dark sores
Maroon was like that day when every touch brought hope and praise
Dark enough to bring an end
But red like love and scattered brains.

It was Something that would change us, cry with us, and use up every heart.
