The Sharpness Found in The Dullest of Them All
I may be pretty,
Or I may not,
It all depends on what you like.
I start out sharp, but I don't bite!
I'm not even strict!
You can use me,
But don't abuse me,
Or I can become quite dull.
I may define a certain mood,
But just like hearts,
I can melt and break.
I always wear my true colors
And I'll never hide them.
This riddle is short and quite easy,
So who exactly could I be?

Answer
A crayon.If you continually use a crayon, then it will become dull. It starts out sharp when you buy it, but its tip doesn't hurt. A crayon is a specific color and can change if it is melted or broken. Makers of crayons sometimes name them for a mood they represent. For example, a blue crayon may be named "Sadness" or perhaps "Feeling Blue".
