The Colors of My Life

My past is brown
Like the cross I would bare
Even when I was hanging
No one gave a care.

My present is blue
As clear as the sky
I stay ever observant
So my path won't whirl awry.

My future is white
Like indisciplined dice
Every time I roll,
I may pay the price.

Brown, Blue, and White.
My Colors that will never stray
They show what I went through
How i got here today.
