Colors

She was yellow
'Little miss sunshine' they called her
She only saw the good in life,
The happy
She was too naive and too blind
But ignorance was bliss
And she drew lollipops and daisies all day

Then they gave her blue sunglasses

She was blue
'Little miss emo' they called her
She only saw pain and ugliness
The underbelly of fake smiles
She was too depressed and too far in her abyss
But she was left alone to listen to her heavy metal
And she drew pointed daggers and bloody souls all day

Then they took the glasses off,
But realized the blue had settled in

She was green
'Little miss shallow' they called her
She only saw material things and boys
She didn't bother looking at the souls
She was too greedy and too angry
But she had friends, even if they were false
And she drew up revenge plans and backstabbing notes all day

They injected too much color into her,
She became confused, then gave up

She was brown
'Little miss plain' they called her
She only kept her thoughts hidden
She never bothered being herself,
She didn't know who she was anymore
She was too lonely and too sad
But nothing got better
And she drew up broken hearts and goodbye notes all day
