being my own person.
add a color to me and im yours.
yet I am an individual!
standing out from a crowd with tones and a shimmering light
yet I'll blend in with shades.
I will take on any paint stroke you have.
I can stay the same without guidance alone.
purity of individuality,
laced with an irrational independence.
Alone to face a orchestra of colors and darkness
while still attempting to maintain my pure white state.
Falling and denying,
lost the need to protect myself with caution.
Fading as quickly, forming a post gray dress.
no longer shining as pearls.
looking down with realization.
How well did I stand out from the rainbow?
The mindset of an uncompromising soul
met the overpowering shades of the world.
So I fell,
hard onto the ground.
From a high horse so tall,pure and bright.
into the utter dark shame,into shame and sin around.
what a disgrace to the righteousness and light.
no different or better then any color.
Only more so ignorant from the lack of paint from the earth...
