"Followed the Rainbow" by Shay-Renee

"Followed The Rainbow"



I followed the rainbow--
To the end.
What I found out, 
I had to mend.

There was no gold, 
But a heart.
It was ripped--
And torn apart.

To tell the truth, 
I had to find out.
What this meant? 
And what it was all about?

The heart was red--
With lots of holes.
But it was dead--
And had no soul.

The heart was split,
Into two.
This heard didn't know--
What to do.

One side was love,
The other was hate.
Which comes first--
Was a debate.

For it was hate--
And that needed to change.
For it was fate,
To have this re-arranged.

I followed the rainbow--
And what I saw hurt.
The truth was....
The heart was dirt.

But this had changed--
And turned to gold.
The heart was mine,
Truth be told.
