Bloodline

red defines me

By DominiquePublished 5 years ago 2 min read
Bloodline

Red not only defines me,

It defines the world.

Through all the evil and chaos on earth that’s the one thing the human race has in common,

We all bleed the same color.

Red is bitter sweet but so is life, and so am I.

When I see red it defines the hurt ,the pain, and the way of life.

But then again when I see red I see strength, I see wisdom, I see a sign of releif

Red is being injured internally but understanding pain is only skin deep.

Red is knowing The person that hates me also hates himself , because we all bleed red.

Red is knowing I could care less about any other color, because every other color just defines our own individuality which makes us forget about “Us” as a whole.

Red is what reminds us that we all relate, it brings us back to the root of humanity which we cant escape,

Red is what makes us all unique.

Togetherness gives birth to Love, while individuality gives birth to separation, which ultimately grows into hate, jealousy and envy which is all around us.

Red reminds us that it’s not the outside that matters, it’s the inside that counts.

Red defines the one thing I've always morned and that's the bloodline to my biological family I've never met.

Red is the anger that I want to come out

Red is the confusion that im having doubts

Red is a sign that lifes not fair

Red is missing you when its not fare because you were never there.

Red is red with out a doubt, red is the pain and suffering of me wanting out.

Red is a level of energy with out fight

Red reminds me that blood makes you related and loyalty makes you family.

Red is the reason why I love my mother and father that took me in and raised me

gave me a chance to be my self and up lifted my spirt daily,

and for that mom and dad I will honor you daily.
