pink
White
A crayon that doesn't show
A color you swatch
And nobody would know
White
A feeling, an invisible cloak
A way to hide, when your confidence
Broke
White
Oh, please, don't pay attention to me
I'd rather be an entity
That no one can see
White
A color you can't see in light
Yet, in the darkness,
It will shine bright
White
A feeling that at the lowest point
You overcome it and pop
And you don't disappoint.
...
Red
A crayon that stands out against all
The emotions on high
Feelings unresolved
Red
Anger, love, hate
A feeling of hope
Intentions can't wait
Red
No! Get out! Leave!
A warning to all
Getting hard to breathe
Red
A notable, outgoing burst
Yes, it's confident
But sometimes, confidence hurts
Red
A color that shines bright against white
Yet in the darkness of night
Hides away with a fright.
...
I decided to mix the white
And the red
A bubblegum pink
A compromise, instead
Shines bright in the dark
Shines bright in the light
I want to be pink
I want to be right.
