I am a sandy beige-
Silent down the halls, head always down
Keep eye contact at a minimum
Don’t talk too much
Blend in as much as possible
But inside I am glowing magenta
Unable to look at, just like the sun
Open and free
Powerful and brave
Never both at once.
Always too scared
No matter how hard I try.
