Do you see me beyond the rainbow?

All the things I am and could be

Do you see me beyond the rainbow?

Everyone wants to show me their rainbows

T-shirts and face paint and pins on a bag.

But I'm afraid they don't really know

I'm not a rainbow or a flag.

No matter how many colours I am I'm still just me

And who I love is not supposed to be revolutionary.

***

I like the sea, the mountains, and open air

I love baking, I love to cook

And there truly is nothing to compare

Like sticking my nose in a book.

I'm a big fan of stories, of sunshine and rain

And I'm probably a little too vain

***

All these things that make up me

I'm so much more than my sexuality

If you look through my eyes, my soul's window

I think you could see me beyond the rainbow
