Today, he wore red
And reflected the hue of his heart…
My mom, in her matching attire.
Their photo was clear
But his mind was not
And my heart felt the weight
Today, I wore red
It adorned my lips…
As a reflection of my parents’ love
And the button
Of the car seatbelt
Was Red… and the only way
Dad remembered how to
Unbuckle it and free
Himself from that which bound him
If only there was a red button
That when pushed
Would free his mind of this disease
The color Red
Has many shades…
