You cant have a rainbow, without rain

by Avellana   Jan 13, 2005


I’m not alone… not alone, alone. Right?
I’m not happy, are any of us?
My friends are always troubled, I can’t help
The sit beyond, where fingertips could grasp
A Boyfriend- Would this help?
A Girlfriend- To cause a stir?
Or… am I beyond help.

I say suicide is selfish, a pain I would dare not inflict
Yet… when an outlook is so bleak…
I feel I only get over one heartbreak…
To endure another… or it’s me.
I’m the cause of your pain.
The agony that courses through your body
Cuts deep… like only the truth could.

For my heart doesn’t flutter at the sight of him
Butterflies? Not even for her.
Pain is an acceptance that you never will heal
Old wounds, re-opened
Old memories, ring true that… will not leave
And when your sure, you couldn’t sink lower
You realize… you’ve never been in love.

I think I am… until he does, has fallen
I break his heart.
Turn him against the world
Now black and cold
Has anyone else realized…?
That… a part of you, always searches for
…A special someone, who will kill you... for you.
From the inside, out.

----------------------------------------
But I want you to know that I will carry you
…You’re the most precious gem I know.
Our secrets, while separate…
Still seep through…
Our walls. Erected to keep us safe
Instead… keep us out, alone,
And have now grown so tall…
Are blocking out the sun.

Remember? You’re my sunshine.
And without you I can’t grow
Won’t want to
Live without
When clouds stop rays from warming, scarred skin
Remember-
‘You can’t have a rainbow, without rain’
