Rainbow Dreams

By Fiza Pathan

There is a rainbow in the sky

With colours of seven to break up my shadow world.

For my terrain is the land of dead hopes

And a lost love of long ago.

This rainbow taunts my sadness

And brings to light all my regrets.

A heart broken by the temptations of the mundane ones

Cannot bear the sevenfold radiance into ones breast.

Get away from me septime serpent

As beautiful as the gold at the end of your tail.

Begone and leave me in solitude

To gnash my teeth and rave about shattered dreams.

But the snake-like colourful one

Does not leave me in my sorrow.

It lightens up my hopes.

And fills my heart with a writer’s bliss.

Hear me you sky god

That trims the rainbow to fit my life.

Hear me you clouds

That dress up the rainbow

With white shades of fluff

So soft to touch.

Hear me my lover

That as long as there be

Rainbows in the heavens

My love for you shall live on

In shades of seven.
