i see the hurt of one i love.
i reach out and touch, to make all better.
i feel the pain of one i love.
i wish your world was better.

dreams of misty red i see,
when people try to hurt you.
thoughts of brutal protection,
when people try and make you sad.

cant wait till the day,
when i can give you a hug.
make you realize,
that you are loved.

i wish to hold you,
girl of crimson
to make life grand
for one i love.

then never again will people harm you.
never again will people mock.
never again will people kill your thoughts.
never again will you be alone, if i was there.

oh, girl of red
how i wish i was there.
to make you see,
how much i truely care

my girl of red.
my girl of crimson.
my friend for life.
my life holder.

i see her standing,
in a corner
trying to break free.
wishing i was there.

my girl of red.
you should know
that its you...
my scarlet, dream

i am what i am and that is all that i am and all that i shall ever be......so deal with it

This is very sweet!  I really enjoyed it a lot, the "girl of crimson" thing was very clever and poetic.  
Nice work!  She'll melt!

Well done....very sweet.

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily
