Red, yellow, green and blue
Orange, pink and violet, too.
All of these colors are accepted
But me, gray, nobody likes gray
I am gray

I am a dark shade
I am not a color
I blend in, never coming out
The rest of the colors are vibrant
I am gray

I am always in the dark
Never spoken to
Never acknowledged
I am always pushed aside
I am gray

I am by myself - Like a lone wolf
No one understands me
I am the shadows of other people
I feel like I don’t belong
I am gray

I am darkness
Never to be seen with the sun
I have no brightness within me
I stay hidden in the lonely street corners
I am gray

I should never come out
for no one would notice me
I am a shadowy figure
No one understands me
I am gray

Red, yellow, green and blue
Orange, pink and violet, too.
I wish I was like them,
I wish to be known and to belong
I am gray
