You left me catching tears in my palms,
This is what I get for loving you unarmed.
With you, I've only known white flags,
& it's my heart you would always drag.
From time to time, I'll take no more but
I never leave, I just stand at the door.
I refuse to walk away from you,
I refuse to paint myself blue.
You're still the rainbow on my every page,
with a love that will not cease to age.
