Red
By time, my brother
You had yet gone
Down a dangerous gravel path
It hadn’t been too long
For your brother
Would still be able to laugh
Confused, but guilty
Every day I sat
Not knowing I was wrong
Scripture not looked at
Never spoke a word
Red tears that were not strong
I’ve heard and I’ve told
He took over her head
It took time before I’ve smiled
Everything’s been red
Uncomfortably fine
Set before her many trials
Red tears came down
A sister’s love
Was the only one who could
She pulled above
You’re the one that people said
Only a mother could
Kept me okay
And held my hand
While he just tried to take
Nobody realized I couldn’t stand
I fell upon my knees
Turn to the only one that could create.
He recreated me.
