Outer Glow

Staring at a rainbow, trying to see the shine.

Looking with all 3 eyes, I think I am starting to go blind.

I don't see what's not there.

Dull inside, riddled with despair.

I saw all the colours before I did.

But as I got closer they all seem to have hid.

Now I see shadows of torment and refrain.

Twisted in knots haunted by the pain.

I may have seen it all along and knew.

But somehow I believed I could break through.

Now though I see, to myself I was not true.

In the rain again I stand, my heart in my hand.

Watching it beat, yet not feeling the pulse.

Have I sent you somewhere tragic and false?

I'm sorry my friend, but we do now know.

Not all inner shines match their outer glow.
