A little flower on the window sill
Buds closed tight as a clam
Though she says “This Is who I am”
Can’t you tell us?
Don’t you want to cry?
When you see them die?
Although you were meant to kill…
See the flower as she grows
Her petals white as bliss
Though she, Herself, doesn’t say this
Won’t you tell us?
You feel a tiny drip
Fall down from your lip
Although no one else knows…
The flower’s come so far
A substance much like blood
Across her petals, see it flood
Please, do tell us.
You change your color from white like this
To the color of a Blood Red Kiss
Although you are behind the bar…
The flower’s radiance Shines only Some
She’s become this way
And She’s sure there’s nothing to say
Why not tell us?
The brush slowly paints you Red
Though that’s not what you Said
Although it’s you who’s become…
…
I’ve become a flower with Dark Vanity
My petals a midnight red shade
The thought in my mind I Guess I forbade
“You could have just Told us”
Though my Blood Red Lips I draw a Dark breath
And to my own feelings, “I put to… Death!”
This time… It’s Me who’s gained Insanity

- Title: A Shade of Blood Red
- Artist: Rena Gengichi
- Description: This was a poem I had done for school to describe who I am and my life's story without actually saying things out in the open, so that the rest of the class would have to try and understand the meanings of the symbolism in the poem, and we also had to come up with our own rhyming scheme too.
