some people seem to radiate a color
you have the cheerful people always bright and smiling,
some that are trapped beneath a cloud of despair,
lovers and fighters,
those that can't make up their minds,
the great thinkers a mystics, and
envoys, greedy, monsters that hide like a wolf in sheep's skins
then you have some odd balls like me
we fit in none of the above and yet
we are all...
you may be so confused as to think we are
veracious saints but we are far from it
in fact we are the low of lows
we hide in the shadows that seem
to follow you in the night
we are the monsters under your bed
but not to fear
we love with all our hearts
we would never harm a soul...
beyond repair

Hm...I have to say, I can't think of an individual color this one works for! I'm guessing a rainbow, I suppose!
You might want to double-check line two--the grammar's off, and I'm not sure what you're trying to say. Also, remember the apostrophe in "can't" and "there" in line five should be "their."
Thanks for entering the contest, and good luck!
