Red
written by: Sirishty Thakur
Poets know how to play with words
I met one
I saw his fingers in the sky
Making the smoke dance
No, he didn’t need a notebook or a pen
His eyes were enough
Everything has a name
But he saw his words in everything
He knew the recipe for colors
So I went up to him
And I saw his dead eyes
The only color that was missing was
Red
