Watersong

Across the rainbow
A river flows
Into a haven
That no one knows
                And in this place
                There is a song
                For the singers
                Who don't belong
There are no lies
There is no hate
The broken never
Disintegrate
                Tattered and torn
                Like angels' wings
                Yet sunny and bright
                Like April spring
I chide in whispers
I bathe in hope
I smile and laugh
I can cope
                A candle burns
                The sun will fall
                The moon will rise
                In a slow crawl
Across the rainbow
A river flows
Into a haven
That I now know





Author notes

Option 2: Pick a color.

The color I chose was rainbow which represents bliss, hope, and (gay) pride.

    I want your haven.
    But I'm not gay...
    can I get in on grounds of being a junkie?

    I like your view of a rainbow and the poem is pretty smooth, however I didn't understand how 'I chide in whispers' fitted in. Good luck with the contest.

    Gay or not, even though I am straight, this made me feel gay (happy). This is one of the most hopeful poems I have ever read, that hasnt managed to make me cry. I loved how you managed the paragraphing in the poem. In some sence I saw arcs of a rainbow. This was very bueatifully written. Good luck in the contest.
