Poetry: Color

I am gray.
For I am not innocent enough to be white
Nor am I angry enough for the color red.
I'm not so bad to be the color black.
And I'm not sad enough to join the ranks in blue.

Not the prettiest of colors.
But it's who I am.
So let me ask,

    Standing in my shadow.

    Red.
    Angry, passionate, sexy.
    The feel of satin against skin.

    Pink.
    Sweet, delicate, young.
    The smell of newly washed sheets.

    Yellow.
