ADHD - Our rainbow

The red in us is our fierce, tenacious high energy Passion like a fire, a real warmth to our personality The green is the spring in our step and our coolest composure under pressure We are remarkable at holding it all together. The yellow is our brightness, our endless ideas that shine The blue is the natural flow of our imaginations, those rivers and rivers of design Our ideas flow deep into the night, like the greatest depths of space We are a walking, talking, delicate dazzling human database. The orange is our optimism, and our authenticity. Orange is also our emotional endurance, during the tough times we go through. Orange, is a big part of you. The enthusiastic adventurer, orange is the open-minded risk-taking, sweet desire of seeing and trying all new things. Orange is the warmth in our wings. The purple is the sublime superpowers we hold, Purple is our strength, mixed up with just a smidge of sarcasm Purple is that mysterious side of our mind, that a neurotypical might struggle a bit to find. The black is the struggles we endure, that we mask well and hide But despite our darkest anxieties, we remain to hold our arms out wide Black is our protection of others, Our friends, Our mothers, Our brothers. What risk wouldn’t we take for one another? It also represents our rocky rebellious stage Hopefully, just hopefully, that was just a phase Not thinking, possibly drinking. We will always try, sometimes we’ll cry, but we get back up, and we guide. We definitely don’t divide We are that rainbow, glimmering through downpours of rain So when you next feel pain, strain, or to blame Remember how remarkable And beautiful it is to have your brain
