Colors of the Rainbow
#WritcoPoemChallenge
If only wishes can come true,
I have one or two or maybe a few,
And they're all about you,
My love, my dear, below, I hope yours are about me too.

I was hopeless, lonely, and scared,
So when you came to me was I unprepared,
Always, I wandered through shades of the night,
Dark with no signs of any kind of light.

The melting tenderness of the night,
It disappeared as you appeared at my sight,
I have loved you and you loved me in return,
We loved so intensely you started to burn.

I didn't notice I was holding too tightly,
The love that we had, the love that was burning brightly,
Was doused and gone was the light,
And I was filled with tremendous fright.

I don't wanna let go but I was hurting you,
I hear your cries of pain as I continue to hold you,
You were screaming at me and you wanted me to let go,
And I did when I saw your tears flow.

I saw Violet when I was suffering from the pain,
You left me alone and I was back in the dark again,
I wasn't crying but I just don't wanna live anymore,
So everyday I pray, I hope that you walk through that door.

But you never did and I saw Indigo,
I was cold but you were not there to hold me, no, no, no,
I was shivering and I yearn for your touch,
I want you to come back, I miss you so much.

Then I saw Blue and I was ashamed,
Ashamed for myself and I realized I am to be blamed,
I was the reason you left, I was the reason you're hurt, so I cried,
I cried and I just felt like I died.

Suddenly, I saw Green and I felt disgusted,
Disgusted for being me, someone that is so busted,
Why am I such a bother, why am I always alone?
Falling into a never ending abyss on my own.

But then I saw orange and I felt determined,
I won't give up on you cause I've been yearnin',
Yearning for years to have someone like you to come,
and feel your souls wrap around me and hum.

So with a smile so bright I stood up,
Walking out of the confines I made up,
I walked and walked with a spring in each step,
And I was filled with plenty pep.

It was raining but I didn't care,
All that mattered was to see my lady fair,
Drip, Drip, Drop, Drop,
Raindrops n' withered leaves all skip and hop.

When I rang your doorbell, you showed up,
I saw Yellow and my happiness went up,
Your eyes widen-orbs filled with something so beautiful and grand,
And I smiled to you and raised my hand.

I saw red,
You leaned and with your hand you grasped my head,
You were shaking and trembling and I grinned,
Your warmth contrasted with the coldness of the wind.

My hand was matted with blood,
It was warm and it dripped down to the mud,
I grabbed you and held you against my arms,
You struggled weakly, heh, You still have your charms.

I dropped the knife that I was holding,
I couldn't believe the scene that was unfolding,
So beautiful and so satisfying,
You're so beautiful it's terrifying.

The light from your eyes slowly disappear,
Such a shame that it would never reappear,
To my shock, the rain suddenly stopped,
With a gasp, I looked up.

There, a rainbow greeted my eyes,
The rain earlier- gone were those cries,
And I realized happily as I hold you,
The one that made me feel the colors of the rainbow was you.
