each color is a color
of it's own
so which color do you own

mellow yellow
bright red there in your head
maybe it's deep blue that be you
or is it sky blue that be true to you
green as grass as your time does pass
purple's passion...that be your fashion
does gray just come your way
or all things
black & white
it that what it brings
day or night

or is it all of the above
or maybe none of the above

or the shades in between
those shades unseen
do you know what i mean

colors are like words
written passionately
they be what they be
without a "." nor an apostrophy
with no "!" mark
no "?" mark
they just be stark

especially there in the dark

colors are just what they be
each color in our life
shows life's strife
so we see
vivid they be
our history

each color
was that really me

is that the color
i be

or maybe another color
i can see

colors just be colors
and colors they be

which color do i choose to be
