pink

White

A crayon that doesn't show

A color you swatch

And nobody would know

White

A feeling, an invisible cloak

A way to hide, when your confidence

Broke

White

Oh, please, don't pay attention to me

I'd rather be an entity

That no one can see

White

A color you can't see in light

Yet, in the darkness,

It will shine bright

White

A feeling that at the lowest point

You overcome it and pop

And you don't disappoint.

...

Red

A crayon that stands out against all

The emotions on high

Feelings unresolved

Red

Anger, love, hate

A feeling of hope

Intentions can't wait

Red

No! Get out! Leave!

A warning to all

Getting hard to breathe

Red

A notable, outgoing burst

Yes, it's confident

But sometimes, confidence hurts

Red

A color that shines bright against white

Yet in the darkness of night

Hides away with a fright.

...

I decided to mix the white

And the red

A bubblegum pink

A compromise, instead

Shines bright in the dark

Shines bright in the light

I want to be pink

I want to be right.
