Rainbow

I know how it feels to fall asleep with pain in my heart and tears on my pillow,

the remains of yesterday, thinking about how my life doesn't make sense.

I know what it's like to feel shame as I look at the scars my pain has caused

I know what it's like to wish I were gone, and how easy it would be.

 

He knows what it's like to always be there through it all

to never let her go

He knows what it's like to know she's hurting. To worry if she'll keep her promise.

He knows what it's like to have to stay strong, even when it feels like it's too much to take.

 

I know what it's like to want to fall apart

to just let go and spill everything out.

I know what it's like to look at the stars and softly wonder if he's looking at them too

I sit alone at night wanting so bad to just give up.

 

He gets into her heart and stops her, let's her know it'll be okay

He's always with her in that dark corner, she won't have to go through it alone

I tell her I won't let go. She believes me.

 

All I ever wanted was a rainbow in the stormy sky

now I have it, he's in my life.

I won't close my eyes to escape it all. I'll keep them open and face the world.

We will fight to the end and we will win.

Is this about you know who? This is very good honey, very open and honest. I just wish I could take away your pain:(

Poetry is not the expression of personality but an escape from personality.

T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
