No Hidden Rainbow

Lies have been sidestepped to satisfy hope, a dolorous lesson of life. When we allow our feelings free rein, we open ourselves to all possibilities. I hear my heart pounding, struggling under the weight of my despair, and I am moved to tears. The truth is the love I held so dear was only a dream, and I have awakened. Life is a never-ending saga of love found, shared, and lost. There is no hidden rainbow behind such sad tears to lessen the deluge these droplets release. Pain wraps itself around mistakes in life, and realizing this, I subdue my anguish and fear. One dream, one heart, one love, one soul, concepts that once floated within my conscious mind now flounder upon the jagged edges of my broken heart. And an outpouring of emotions morphs into tears as I grieve a love lost to time.

Dear Emile, your poignant poetic pen is deep, rich and mournful. Heartbroken imagery expressed so intimately. Such beautiful sadness spilt upon the page seeps through with ease to flood the depths of my heart with emotion. Congratulations for your lovely win in Brian’s contest. Warmest wishes my friend.. ~Susan

Your way with weaving words and expressing is impeccable! What a poignant and moving write this is! I am truly feeling the angst and pain as i read this. Life is indeed a never ending saga, always something. And this line stood out for me the most “ There is no hidden rainbow behind such sad tears” this should be printed and shud be a quote by you! So good! I felt this poem so strongly

Hello Emile, I have just read this poem. I sense a lot of heartache here. You had the love of your life. I refer that as a soulmate. Some of us think we have a soulmate but when one partner cheats -That hurts very much. It is like a huge shock through the whole body. The person that is faithful wonders what they did wrong. the marriage is not the same. something missing.
