Everyone else defines themselves
In their possesions and wealth.
But I define myself in colors.
Sometimes I think I'm red or orange,
So fiery and passionate,
And my opinions and my attitude
You wouldn't want to mess with.
Other times I'm yellow,
Happy, joyful, and warm.
Shining like the summer sun
On a bed of pretty daisies.
When I'm down I'm blue,
Occasionally dark as black,
Living in my night world
Wondering if there's a way back.
Violet is my favorite phase,
Shy and quiet, but thoughtful too.
Somewhere perfectly in between
The many shades of red and blue.
But will I ever know which one's really me?
A quest I will begin.
I'll paint every color of the rainbow
To discover who truly I am.
