Rainbow Me



My eyes are blue,
Sad and depressed.
They've seen sad things.

My hands are yellow,
Happy and bright,creating happiness.

My heart is red,
With love and anger.
It can bleed.

My mind is green,
Fresh and new
Brimming with ideas and possibilities.

My soul is purple,
Cool and mysterious.

My feet are orange,
With pain and hope.

Some can only see in black and white.
They can't see green eyes or red hands
Or yellow feet

Deprived of the World of color.
It's sad to see a black and white person.
