Before It Rains

Taking hope out of a gloomy day is like living without a hopeful heart; and waiting for miracles without praying is bringing on a specter of infidelity, which disrupts my daily living... making me ponder faith with distrust! Before it rains, I hope for a rainbow at five... believing that it will there for me to admire, not merely imagining, but envisioning its beauty; what is hidden from the eyes shouldn't be a mystery, and this Humankind has created myths and legends for the ones lacking the sixth sense! Embarking on that journey of incognito, solely relying on this overburdensome ego, causes me to experience inquietude in a most unfovarable latitude; and freedom is confined in short miles, when my ship comes to an halt for guidance! Before it rains, I'll see myself securing the anchor, and step on the pier of the safest harbor... waving at the fading rainbow over the refulgent horizon; taking pride and remembering the grueling fright of a captain who never displayed a doubt... even when the storm dashed the agitated ocean!
