Colours

Colours (Inspired by the recent race related shootings in America) I'm in red You're in blue I'm 'lady in red' You're 'boy in blue' We're a myriad of kaleidoscopes But colour does not define us Tomorrow I think pink You'll be in purple I'm me And you're you Who's in black and who's in white Colour does not define us I'll dye my hair blue You'll wear green lenses I'm still me You're still you Colour does not define us

Lovely write Mubarika! Colours do not define us, just describe us. Besides, colour is what our eyes and brain perceive, what we see is the light bouncing back, literally the colour something ISN'T. 7 my friend xomo!

I wish color did not define us, but you are wrong! It does.
