Inside Out

I am colourful
On the inside,
I promise.
I am not
the sepia photograph
Slammed and damned
On their shelves
Look at me!
I am not
A part of the furniture
alloyed into the walls
Of endless grey
Look at me!
I am not
My midnight paintings
Of Prussian blue
Look at me!
I am
The faded lilac iris
You forgot to water
Did you really forget?
Look at me!
I am
The mustard coat
In that store that doesn’t
welcome me anymore
Look at me!
I am
the raging red river
in my veins
that is no less human
than yours.
Look at me?
I am colourful
On the inside,
I promise.
