Red:
The color of blood
The color of the hearts that are going to be ripped out
ripped out and thrown aside.
Red,
the color this country became
as of... yesterday?
White:
the color of the ones who get to lead
the ones who get to celebrate
unless that is, if you're white and gay
White,
the opposite of the color of me
The color who allowed this to be.
Blue:
the color of the tears I have to shed,
as I watch the ones closest to me get taken;
leaving because of how this country has been made.
Blue,
the color of an emotion
The emotion that will lead to hate.
