The sides of me

I think of myself as a lively purple,
always the center of attention,
always entertaining my friends.
When I’m away from friends and family,
I think of myself as a closed orange.
Nobody knows me, nobody knows of me,
I just blend in.
But once my friends are in the picture,
you’d better get ready,
for the me you’ve never seen.
