Color

In the concrete city, I suppress my identity

I am like a chameleon that changes colors to match my surroundings in order to fit in and hide from the judgemental stares

I read people's opinions and thoughts to defend myself from their gossip

I can't remember my true color

I’ve gained know-how by living in this distant place 

The truth is that I want for you to see through my facade to my heart

We people are born again many times when we find out true self 

Life is the color of roses

Everyone has his own color

You and I and all the Earth are living varicolored

I loved how expressive this is. Truly, changing colors to match our surroundings drains us of our energy. Difficult if we cannot be ourselves. I hope one day you'll find a unique color of your own, one you can stick to for the rest of your life. I loved this piece, thanks for writing it! :)

You are right. Some people are lucky. Can see the color of a person.

Our energy, good or bad. This is the color we are. If both. Many colors. Thank you for sharing the amazing poetry.
