Ode to my Rainbow


This is my ode.

The ode of my song,

The ode of my rainbow.

An ode to the the window glass

An ode to the cigarette ash

To the shrill voices in my head

To the monsters under my bed

The ode to the thorns on every rose

The ode to the tacks under my toes

An ode to the blue sky when it rains

An ode to the sharpness of growing pains

To the broken heart

To the brand new start

The ode to failure

The ode to my mother

An ode to my brother

An ode to my father

To the slamming of bedroom doors

To the outbursts of mini wars

This is my ode.

The ode of my song

The ode of my rainbow.
