Colors

Wed, 03/09/2022 - 17:59 -- xerash

Stuck in a nightmare

Stuck in this prison that I call my body

Toxic masculinity floating in the air

Pink or blue

Which one are you

Pink or blue

What color did they give you

When you were first born

They told me I was pink

When really I was purple

Both yet neither

They’re telling me that im pink

It's in my DNA

No matter when I say

They won’t change their mind

But I’m not pink

And I never was or ever will be

But I’m not blue

And I never was or ever will be

Yet they say

Pink or blue

Which one are you

Pink or blue

What color did they give you

When you were first born

No matter when you say
