Color Me Colorless

In a world of many shades of gray
Is a place my heart does long,
For in a photograph
Lacking in vibrant color,
I find a story beyond explanation,
I find a sense of emotion
That I did not know before,
As I look around me
The colors of the rainbow
All seem to shout and quarrel,
All wishing to catch my eye,
But in a world of black and white
I find a flow that always goes,
Be it angry, sad, or complacent
Never do I not know,
For never does it matter
Which color I place upon my skin
Or the tone of my flesh below,
In a world lacking color
Understanding is what I know,
If I had to say
If I had to choose,
I would declare a favorite
That paramour being clear,
But alas the world cannot see transparency
So I choose a world of many shades of gray,
And wish upon you to
Color me colorless
