Crimson of blood spilled
anguish wafts
hope expires
Close one eye and see
life beyond
the curtain
Sell your soul,
that bitter almond mess
find a snuff box
to harbor grief
Crimson, angry
petulant
poisonous, sulphuric
Crimson
in all its agony
and tonal shades
In a list

Congrats on your H.M Wolfie,you have penned this so well with emotions felt by the reader.
The pictures painted in my mind was of great pain and anguish.

Dark!
I never saw you write like this before. Certain is the color of pain & it was painful to read because of it's intensity & vividness!
Good going here Sherry. 
This is 
of a trophy for sure...
