Shining Through the Wall

Beyond the wall we face is a rainbow Of magic, laughter, serenity, dreams pure without sorrow Though all the brilliant colors are outlined by pain Which is given for us to grow again. We get occasionally to glimpse that rainbow As we come together for momentary glimpses of the glow Of the face of our loved one illuminated by colors in Our mind seen from the emotions which tell us how you've been. The colors and the pain are all intertwined You can paint them through the words in your mind That rip through my body to embrace my heart Telling it secrets of golden intentions you impart. I will be your ocean which captures all your rays As you shine on me during precious moments of designated days Where the walls open up and allow you to show through To bring me pleasures that can only be brought by you. Nothing can destroy those rays You decide when to show them and on which days The walls cannot make them go away They only hide them until revealed on a new day. And it will also in time show the fluttering Of the butterfly which is your delicate trying Which stems from a beautiful life not crushed And which shares its beauty without being rushed.
