Crimson Red

Hands outreaching from her vision helped her seek a sound decision.
Though she seldom had a mission, now she's striving far ahead;
Goals were made for her to marry, burdens gone no longer carried,
All that was, now, dead and buried in a fertile flower bed.
All her pains and sorrows buried in a fertile flower bed
Blooming roses crimson red.

Oh, what joy, she's so elated, known at last she's been created
For her soul's been reinstated to that place where she shall wed.
Oh, the thought of her succumbing to the chords of angels strumming
As she upward soars, becoming like her vision overhead.
Like the sunrise in the morning, silent rises overhead
Spreading colors crimson red.

Rags now changed and disregarded, new gowns worn, and Grace imparted
Led her to new worlds uncharted-- Though, the half has not been said;
"Thou art fair my love, behold thee. Thou art rare my bride, to hold thee
And as if mine eyes to mold thee, touch thine lips like scarlet thread.
Thy two breast are like two young roes and thine lips like scarlet thread
Shine like rubies crimson red."

Next, regretfully, awakened --from her dream that had been taken--
By her spirit that was shakened, she arose up from her bed.
Looked upon her new day's gleaming, thought about her night time dreaming
As she felt her insides beaming from her Bridegroom's arms outspread;
Yes, she knew the hand of mercy from her Bridegroom's arms outspread
Filled with passion crimson red.
