Red Lipstick
I apply
Red lipstick freely
Across your lips
Not caring for the contour
Of the mouth
Wantonly applying
Red lipstick
On your wound
Bleeding
Brushing the red
My teeth
Sharing the stain
The taste
Staining my teeth
Your nipples
Red lipstick
Painting
Red
My passion
Your response
Lipstick smeared
Blood red paint
Lavished on
Your skin
Scarring, temporarily
Yet indelibly
Captured
In my mind
Forever
