I lived in a world with no knowledge of other colors.
A perpetual storm cloud of grey.
Until a pink beam burst through me.
I was stunned. So beautiful.
I noticed it was a person somewhat like me!
I waved. No response.
A blue beam. Then a red, purple and green!
Every color of a rainbow. Right into me!
I waved again this time at each one.
Nothing. While they talked amongst themselves.
I jumped and I screamed.
Hey look at me!
I ran toward them. It seemed like the distance was endless.
I closed my eyes and then took a breath.
I let go of my fear and I became bright white and luminous
A beacon of light others started to see
I noticed each one covering their eyes and walking toward me
With each step they came they faded into grey
One by one they unshielded their eyes
Their faces twisted into something new
I realized too late I had shined to bright
Each face twisting into discontent
The closer they came the darker they became
Clawing and snarling until the shadow was all that remained
Until all light was cast out. Darkness unwavering and hatred they shout
The lesson I learned
As I reflected in the dark
I'm not meant to shine
The grey is me.
Alone, quiet, and unseen.
Once I acknowledged my place
Each of their colors returned
More vibrant than ever before
