Fool's Gold

The rainbow's endless path
Leads to mystery

What lies beyond the shimmering mountain?
What treasure am I seeking -or is it a treasure?

This journey is now over for
The road is never-ending -or is it?

Now I see the end!
The prize!
Glittery mist -what does it hide?

Shall I rush to uncover the
Secret?

Now that I know,
The journey was fruitless,
For at the end of the myriad of beauty
Lies nothing but memories.

Memories of unsuspecting travelers
Who sought after Man and Women's greatest prize-

Memories of grievous thoughts-
Where is my pot of gold?
My endless riches?

But nigh,
All that lies at the end of the fool's trail-

A writhing cauldron of lost hope

I know it's kind of depressing... But that's what I was inspired to write! I hope you like it. I am eleven.
