True Colors

I sit here staring into space Black and white is common place Many see reds and browns And other colors as seen on clowns Black and white is all I can see Other colors are so empty I can see clearer than most people can Except for colors such as cyan I wonder if I’ll ever regain my sight So I won’t only see colors of the night Some say that I am blessed But you should see how I’m dressed There are colors I can see So now I feel an epiphany To let the whole world to now I can feel color like I feel snow Look at the girl who is so blue This is a color with an awful hue And look at the man who is mellow Deep inside he’s really yellow So you know that I can see Many colors all around me My eyes may not work all that well But that won’t keep me in a shell Next time we meet I will place A color for you so I can relate I won’t have to use names ever again I will just use color as your brand Duane A.
