The River Runs

by: Author Unknown,

The river of my life runs strong and deep but throughout it's course it has taken on many colours and hues

The river runs pink when I was born I was small, wrinkled and pink

The river runs orange for the happiest and brightest times of my life

The river runs green for the times I was sick and needed to be nursed

The river runs yellow all the times I was scared not wanting to be alone

The river runs yellow so many times I cringed and cowered at your touch

The river runs blue since the time a coldness has entered my soul

The river runs red for the anger that courses through my being

The river runs black hatred for you who betrayed my trust

The river runs

The river runs a rainbow
