Tainted.

With red, my life was painted.

Red is the color of love,

I heard once a saint said.

But life had some other plans for me,

And it wasn’t something for which I had waited.

Your hands were red,

It wasn’t love but my blood,

But I was too blind to see,

Too blind to see that your love for me was tainted.

-Abhishek Gupta.
