RAINBOW

When you're seen, you'll glow.

When they want, they'll show.

When you matter, you'll know.

If ever they offered, you might borrow.


When you need, they'll say no.

When they need, you'll bestow.

When you care, you're a shadow.

If ever they cared, you’ll grow!


When help comes, it'll be slow.

When they're on top, you'll fall below.

When you're in pain, you'll be solo.

If ever they helped, you'll always owe.


When love is lost, you'll forget tomorrow.

When you're alone, you'll drown in sorrow.

When they ignore, tears will flow.

If ever they loved, your mind will blow.


When they're done, they'll go.

When they accuse, I'll take what they throw.

When today was too much, I'll bury in a burrow.

If only life was right, they'd see my Rainbow.
