The rainbows In the bowl have faded along with the childhood dreams that are forever unfulfilled

The charms that are supposed to be lucky have all turned grey into the cloudy river of disappointment

All of the colors bleed into each other

Until there Is yet just a ghost of what they used to be

And they all disappear into the puddle of hopelessness

The heart was the last to lose its color

The dark pink turning lighter

And lighter

Before there was nothing left of it at all

This used to be a place full of hope

Dreams

And aspirations

Of the childhood that we once had

Now we’re only left with the disappointment

Sadness

And anger

Of the life that we ended up with

But every morning we need to try again

Continue to look for rainbows

To try to grab them before they disappear

And

Fade away
