To Find Your Rainbows End

A quiet storm made its way
Feelings strewn and blown astray
Enamored in one another were we
In turns a desperation to be free
Lost in each other, thus
A soft-focused portrait of us
Harsh and cold are the fates 
As rage tears and alienates
Torn souls rarely mend
Hence a star-crossed waning end
A thousand miles starts with a single step
A journey’s unfathomable depth
All that glitters does not glow
Rare a shimmering prismed rainbow
Unlike what we’ve been told
Stark emptiness, ne’er a pot of gold
We lift up, step back
The evident lacuna, what we lack,
You’ll be there, I’ll be here, 
When abstract dream pop-ups appear
When red flags sound off alarms,
When under a rainbow with open arms!
You’ll find us not as illusions
Real enough, peaceful resolutions
When the rain subsides
A misty rainbow abides
Beneath we’ll pass
Free from sadness alas
With no quandary or doubt
It feels good to reach out
Your sunshine smile wide to ears
Loosens all ingrained fears
Reflections of you form
Together we’ll quiet the storm
At a rainbows end
