Where Would The Rainbow Be?

If the colours of the rainbow argue about whose brightness matters most,

Where would the rainbow be?

Misunderstandings are bound to happen

They will break you                                                                                                                                 

to a point of emotional death

but if you are a strong one, you will spring back up in growth

They say “if you have no misunderstanding with a person

you are really not in an understandable relationship”

But do we really have to be misunderstood

To come to a point of perfect understanding?

Well…

Being misunderstood simply means that

You hold an independent viewpoint

It means that you understand something

In a way that is different from others

When everyone comes together to bring their independent viewpoints

You’ll have something that can be likened to the colours of the rainbow

Quite different, yet beautiful

If the colours of the rainbow argue about whose brightness matters most,

Where would the rainbow be?

We are human

We try to make others see the independence in our viewpoints

Expecting them to lose hold of theirs

Everyone tries to be right

But everyone is right

Everyone has no one’s perception

But no one has everyone’s perception

You are right in your head

Because it comes from your head

They are right in their head

Because it comes from their head

But we become wrong when we try to be simultaneously right

If the colours argue, where would the rainbow be?

Arguments are inevitable

Because perceptions differ

Diddy calling on the phone

But Hella’s busy with the dishes

Diddy thinks Hella’s intentionally not picking up

Storms her house and she welcomes him with a hug

He pushes her away and demands an explanation

Hands dripping soapy water,

Hella points to the socket in the dinning where her phone is charging

Diddy’s sorry he misunderstood

Where would the rainbow be?

A little chill pill

A little hearing out

A little egoistic relief

A little more open heart

Fear not!

Thou mustn’t doubt thy inner man

There is nothing wrong with you

You will always be misunderstood

Because you will always hold a different viewpoint

You always will

You are you

And there can be no us

If our views never come to a point of absolute dependence

Where would the rainbow be

If I walk the whole city

Shoulders high, eyes fixed

Not wanting to buy another’s view?

Where would the rainbow be

If everyday is spent

Trying to defend our views, degrading others?

How will it be so

That the world be a better place

When all the time, you esteem your view better?

Hang on a sec

Consider my perception

Make me hang on a sec

To consider your conception

Let us do just that

Otherwise

Where would the rainbow be?
