The rainbow came out today
It looked for me and came my way
At the end of the rainbow, there is no pot of gold
Just the pain waiting to unfold
Grey came out to give me the fog
Confuse my mind and dialogue
Along came white to blur my vision
I cannot read or watch television
Black is the darkness of sleep I never get
Which mingles with grey to make me forget
Up pops yellow, a coward it makes me feel
Telling me fibro is nothing, what’s the big deal?
Red is for anger at the doctors who don’t care
And people when told just give me the stare
Orange is for the flames as I burn within
And the electric shock that goes through my skin
The colours mix and my energy they sap
Oh how I would give anything for a nap
