Dressed in Red

by Katy   Feb 22, 2005


Im looking at a picture of me standing in a crowd
Everyone is in black but im in red
The picture starts to move and the crowd starts to stare
they start to scream
They run away from me
I try to speak but nothing comes out
I try to cry but my eyes are dry
I wander if this is just a dream
but i realize my eyes are wide open
Im alone in this world different from those around me
A little boy come up to me and asks me
why i am in red
I tell him the same reason he is in black
I try to remove all the red but it grows on me like skin
no matter how hard i try i will always be dressed in red
I stand there not knowing where to go
Now I look away from the picture and look all around me
everything is different something has changed.
I look back at the picture and nothing is there
just a painful glimpse of my past
I look up again and see my future
my future where everyone is dressed in red
