Blazing
April 10, 2015
Most of the time I am pale yellow
Cool, calm and collected
Blending in with the crowd
Quietly listening, like a spring fawn hiding in the grass
But on the rare occasion,
I am bright orange like the blazing sun on a hot day in the Sahara desert
Focused, firm and forthcoming
Bold, and opinionated
Spewing with ideas, like a volcano about to erupt
From pale to bright, both colors are me,
but the fire is always there waiting to be set free.
