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
