Colors of Me

There are many
Shades of me
They cover you
And color me
I can be any hue I want to be

Black or white
Neon bright
A darker color when we fight
A softer shade 
Relaxed for when I sleep

A blue for when I’m feeling low
When wide awake, a light yellow
A range of shades for everything
When ready I’m an aubergine

I change from day to day you know
Like many colors of the rainbow
I shine brightly for all to see
Growing daily like the evergreen
