Rainbow

Search my person and you'll find a letter,
From my doctor saying I am better.
Search my heart and you will find,
Lots of scars, but I don't mind.
Search my brain, the same scars are there.
But I'm better now; I've learned to care.

Every x-ray shows the broken bones,
That I was given when I was home.
Broken hopes, shattered dreams.
The smile on my face not what it seems.
Years of depression, years of hurt.
The daily struggle to find my true worth.
Days of sorrow, days of pain.
Will I ever be whole again?

Now I smile, now I sing.
Now I can see the joy in things.
What is a smile, without a tear?
Without a loss, what can you hold dear?
Don't fear sorrow, don't skirt pain.
There can be no rainbow without the rain.
