Elusive Rainbow
As i sit pondering in the airplane,
observing the surrounding peopl,
my attention is captured by a lonsome girl.
Her face displays and unmistakable sorrow.
She appears to be seeing gray sky,
but longs to see a rainbow.
For if she saw that rainbow,
riding on this airplane
would be much pleasanter, and there would be no gray sky.
Being treated better by people
would begin to take away some of the pain and sorrow
written across the tear-stained face of the girl.
For if I was that girl,
searching for that elusive rainbow,
trying to rid myself of sorrow,
I would take the seemingly never ending flight on this airplane
far away from the people
inducing this oppressive grays sky.
That is not only what I would do to flee from gray sky,
but it is what I am doing, for I am that desolate girl.
tired of beingsurrounded by back-stabbing people,
exhausted form searching for a non-existent rainbow,
overwhelmed by the monotony of riding on this airplane
called life, and writing the story of my life, Sorrow.
While drowning in my sorrow
and searching the sky
for an end to the ride on airplane,
I wish that i was not this grief-stricken girl
that must be revived by a rainbow
and is always pitied by other people.
I'm wodering if any of these people
will ever care that I'm drowning in sorrow
and help me find this rainbow.
Then, searching for and answer, I look up into the sky,
only to see what I have become, a pitiful girl
in desperate need of a miracle,in the reflection of the window of the airplane.
While writing this sad tale of judgemental people and gray sky,
of a torrential sorrow that has over-taken a lonely girl,
I have realized the importance of finding a rainbow on the never ending ride on this airplane.
