Alone

you were always alone
missing was the realization
sadness and complaint
when the skies are grey what good is rainbow paint
you can either faint or patiently eye  heaviness  faint
some search for answers some look for questions
now the question is how to use the key
some answers are nothing but more questions
portable light and a stationary butterfly
shape of the lantern
prisoned is the pattern
now say bye to your reflection
who needs shades for protection
