Bloody Rose

By Killerdemonchick

My hand is red
The colour spreading downwards to drip from my elbow.
Thicker than water, but not as thick as glue.
The red is now in the shape  of a rose.
A red rose.
A bleeding red rose.
A bleeding red rose dying, becoming all but a trail.
A trail of blood.
But would it surprise you if I told you it was not mine?
