Rainbow of Emotions

My search is over, found my rainbows end entrance has gold door with silver knocker I turn the diamond crusted door handle met with prism of colour on entering spectrum of colours certainly exceed anything seen or imagined from Earth flowing through middle a multicoloured marble stairway, on each tread is inscribed with human emotions, starting with need start of life reliance of innocents I start climbing, see trust indicating our needs for acceptance of all others followed by happiness as we all bond share experience, generosity then I see optimistic life is good will get even better in our future jovial no responsibility reflected fluorescent warm bright colours Emits rainbows interior beauty elated by what I am seeing words Like affection, tenderness, devotion, delight, ecstatic, serene, contentment finally I see love a glow so bright shining on your name the one I adore pinnacle of this amazing rainbow as the stairway starts to decline gently looking down I read respect our need to accept others we seek understanding friendship, to my dismay colours fade become cool as I descend, emotions begin to change which are quite distressing bad emotions such as, hopeless, worthless, powerless, inferior, trapped, confused I see the exit surrounded by grey dark blues, a door inscribed with words such as horrifying and humiliation, and in large blood red letters was hatred, now I know it's time for me to decide I need, want to be my destination I turn back, my place is the top of this wonderful beautiful rainbow with my LOVED ONES.
