Rainbow
Set the trap lay out the bait, drawn from inside this deep dark hate.
One consumed by thoughts to humiliate the other prepares to retaliate.
An endless cycle a dark black cloud the thunder now becomes quite loud.
It slowly builds then draws a crowd the words we spoke we are not proud.
Disoriented and in a daze as if were trapped inside a maze.
Our eyes to each refuse to gaze the skies erupt and all ablaze.
Standing in the pouring rain the whole thing seems to be insane.
With nothing, left for us to gain our hearts could handle no more pain.
For all we had and all we were our test of love did not endure.
Once we thought, it was for sure our truth a lie it was not pure.
Part the skies a rainbow is born, deep within a darkened storm.
Far away, from what is norm before our eyes the colors form.
Our love was once but did not last a memory a faded past.
Aside it all we now must cast the time we shared went far to fast
With neither willing at all to bend, we went too far too much too mend.
This truth no longer can we pretend for to ourselves we now must fend.
Shattered dreams left in its wake quite a toll the storm did take.
We cannot hide we cannot fake the misery of true heartache.
Soon the clouds will dissipate just up ahead, lies our true fate.
No time for us to hesitate, we walk away and through the gate.

The Key
Category: Writing and Poetry
The Key
In an instant all becomes so clear, but a whisper could you hear.
My passion is all it could be, for to my heart you hold the key.
You close your eyes now fast asleep, becomes so clear my love so deep.
Could this be true, well so it seems, I came to you inside your dreams.
You glanced at me a distant stare take a chance play a dare.
Holding back to much to bare a love like ours is far too rare.
Now in my arms I hold you tight nothing ever seemed so right.
This lasted throughout the night then everything went black and white.
For just a moment our souls collide granted me a glimpse inside.
The truth is this you cannot hide so this to me you now confide.
I love you with all I could be right here and now for you to see.
What I profess this now to thee for to my heart you hold the key.
Know this now and you shall see that in my heart will always be.
A place for you to share with me our fate our love our destiny.
Connected at the inner core our love will last forevermore.
You are the one that I adore so take the key unlock the door.
Wake up now nothing to fear for in your heart all is clear.
So you arise the dream still near flows from your eye a single tear.
You know the path and see the way your heart belongs to me this day.
Our love will last and always be, for to our hearts we hold the key.

The Mist
The Mist
I see many faces day by day.
Everyones hiding in their own little way.
The reason why, I may never know.
It takes control and locks up our souls.
So heres a mirror, take a look and see.
At who we are and who we try to be.
The game is really simple and easy to play.
You show us who you're not and see what we say.
Like a Mist it won't let us go.
It holds the key to the heart of our soul.
Its a barrier before us that we cannot overcome.
Our struggle with the Mist has sadly just begun.
Like the sun and the rain,
its unpredictable you see.
If you will ever know,
the real you and me.
Deep down inside I guess were all the same.
So why do we keep playing this silly little game.
Does it really matter, will we ever know?
What lies beneath the Mist at the bottom of our soul.

Night
Night
Darkness is and darkness was as it shall always be.
Hidden in the cloak of night for you to never see.
As daytime parts it welcomes night.
It knows the truth, shall it not fright.
It does exist, it needs not light.
But not within your realm of sight.
For all of time its been around.
It cannot make a single sound.
It has no place, it knows no bound.
In darkness, it shant be found.
With every step, it follows you.
You know for sure this much is true.
It takes control, makes you its pawn.
It feeds off light and needs not dawn.
At last, you think you found a way.
Turn out the lights, wait out the day.
In darkness, all becomes so clear.
Wake up now and face your fear.
Within yourself, you now confide.
Theres nowhere left for you to hide.
Find this truth deep down inside.
The time has come you must abide.

Eyes Beneath The Sky
EYES BENEATH THE SKY
I close my eyes, let out a sigh.
Its clear to you I know your lie.
Tears flow down, you start to cry.
For you know now, this is goodbye.
So now you hide, wont show your face.
You crawl inside your deep dark place.
No longer can you hide your shame.
The choice was yours, you played the game.
Eyes beneath the sky.
I often wonder why.
What took so long for me to see.
The truth right there in front of me.
The time has come to face your fears.
So wipe away those shallow tears.
You struggle hard try not to cry.
Then ask yourself oh why oh why.
That fateful night you told your lie.
Now with eyes closed you say goodbye.
So turn around and walk away.
Theres nothing left for you to say.
You made the choice, you told your lie.
Just one more thing to you, goodbye.
