Gone

somewhere
out of nowhere
on a bright
and shiny day
a terrible
rainstorm
headed
right my way
seems it was
unavoidable
silver tears
again would pour
caught off guard
I wasn’t ready
but some things
you cannot ignore
the only thing
that saved me
in the middle
of this storm
was that a little light
hit the rain
and a precious
rainbow was born
it stood right
in front of me
a true miracle
right there
so I bathed
in the beauty
that it invited me
to share
now
after seeing it
I will never
be quite the same
and then
it was gone
as quickly
as it came

Damn, how perfect is this to my moment?

Desperate for changing
Starving for truth
Closer where I started
Chasing after you
