Chasing Rainbows
This is my first ever entry to @robyneggs' Weekly Poetry Dice Challenge
This week's roll:
The moon shines so bright, to everybody's delight.
Yet for me it would be another sleepless night.
Mixed emotions! My feelings undefined.
I do not know what it is I truly want to find.
Days go by so fast. But they also go by so slow.
It is so frustrating and makes me feel low.
I wonder when it is that everything will be alright.
When will that rainbow ever be within my sight?
My head says "go chase your dreams up above!"
My heart shouts, "how could you have?
How could you just leave these things you once have loved?"
So I ask, "what is wrong in seeking freedom, which by now I should already have?!"
Yes, my hopes are high as that skyscraper could be
My spirit's heightened, on fire! I can now be free.
No more days of sadness. No more sleepless nights.
I no longer need to wear the masks of delight.
Changes are the most constant things in this world.
They may be good, they may be bad.
Almost half the time life sucks. True. But I believe it is only a matter of perspective. If we choose to see the good things, greater things will follow.
Never lose hope. Keep chasing those rainbows.
