Rainbow

On a cold November night
rain would not stop falling.
The noise it made against my window..
the tears it resembled,
the way it squeezed my heart..
oh, it made me cry out for you, my love.
A desperate longing..
so overwhelming, so painfully deep.

"Where are you?"

I sat in a corner.. waiting..
with your old shirt in my arms.
Your scent was so comforting.
Your voice so alive in my mind,
your love like a rippling wave
across a tranquil lake in my heart.
"I belong to you.. And you belong to me,"
I repeated, "we are one in spirit. Yes, we are."

And soon indeed, as if an angel had heard my voice,
the clouds drifted apart.. slowly, slowly..
and a most beautiful rainbow
was formed up in the sky amongst all else.
Sunlight struggled through lacy curtains
and footsteps were heard in the hallway.
"Oh, it is him! Heaven is right here..
divine! ...Blissful!"
If only everlasting..
