The shadows of a rainbow <br />Follows me around <br />Not for the shower of colour <br />But a harsh thunderstorm <br />The mirror has two faces <br />Looking back at me <br />Give me a wild horse to ride <br />Much better than a dream <br />Sometimes the feeling <br />Love is a boat <br />A sinking boat against a never ending storm <br /> <br />I want to be left standing <br />Against a burning wall <br />A death child is listening <br />To the wailing sounds of my being <br />Blue sunbeams are shining <br />On my white bloody face <br />A broken shell is lying <br />Under your heavy feet <br />Dying flowers in my hair <br /> <br />How could I ~ oh no! <br />Such a fool to let you see <br />Let you into my shadows <br />That was only meant for me <br />But a happy star is burning <br />In the glowing sky tonight <br />God is now looking down <br />And setting me free<br /><br />Sylvia Prinsloo<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/love-is-a-boat/
