Color of Flaws

Brown could be her crown, but is always a letdown
Red does fit but can fade bit by bit
Orange is kinda odd, a red and yellow fraud
Yellow can’t behave and was laid at her grave
Green is Serene but is heavy with envy
Blue is like oceans and tears, so painfully clear
Indigo is but a shade of years ago
Violet never bleeds like the fire pit
But Black lacks the attack of a maniac
And White fails to be bright which causes a fright 
So neither should have the right to reign over night
