Interpiece

What is Color? Can you see me now?

Color is bright color is loud, Color is safe.

I am in the closet with all my colors

I don't want to come out.

My colors don't judge me, they just let me be me, they won't throw rocks at me

What will happen when I come out?

Will you still like me?

I think you already know but you don't ask

I know you already can see who I really am

If I come out will you be mean?

It's lonely in here I want to walk out

I want to come out

I'm tired of living a secret, living a lie.

I want to be free. I want to set myself free.

Can I set myself free? Am I strong enough?

I am afriad I am shaking. Please help me

I come out of the closet.

I can breathe, tears are in my eyes

The sun is so bright and warm on my skin

I am not afriad anymore. I can breathe

I feel so strong I can conquer the world

Watch out here I come

I am not afriad anymore to be me

Because I am colorful and I am ready for this crazy world.

World are you ready for me.

Please don't look at me that way

I am just like you.

I love just like you

I am a colorful beautiful human being
