Sometimes

A story about no matter how dreadful the world is. You need to show your colors that represents you.

Sometimes I stand there.
I will think to myself.
What a dreadful world we live in.
Where the hungry aren’t fed.
Where greed walks by the poor with a turned head.
Where dictators rule the oppressed.
Where single mothers work hard just to feed her child.
Where people hide who they truly are because of society.
Where society is twisted in every shape,way and form.
In this world we live in.
Only you can open your eyes.
and paint the colors you see.
The colors that you want to show everyone.
But.
You can’t. 
Because these colors don’t exist.
Only in your mind these colors exist.
But you know these colors exist.
The only way to show the world these colors.
Is to open your mind.
Because.
Those colors are you.

Hello Izzy,you have identified some serious problems that we face in this world.
You have right intellect to overcome the problems.These lines indicate your ways of handling problems.

"Only you can open your eyes.and paint the colors you see.
The colors that you want to show everyone"
You may fix the grammatical error, " exists" by simply writing "exist".
Thanks for sharing a nice write.

There's something about this poem I like but can't quite place. It's in the last few lines
"The only way to show the world these colors
Is to open your mind
Because
Those colors are you"
I really liked the way in which you brought all of the separate ideas together with those last lines. Nice write!
