I hugged the thought of you, but the bruise's still hasten the reflection of me in the mirror. Was this me, or was this the naughty boy you told me I was, without a word spoken. Can I only fall so many times? I'm always tripping over your insecurities? Why would I be your anger vocalized on my features never the face. Where reality sinks in, showing your guilt, hidden under a cloth of luminous pain. It shines in so many colours that ache when ever they arise. Some shades deeper than a reflection, and I weep on those rainbows inside, for nothing is bright,only shades linger. I was never the gold at the end of the rainbow. You just thought I was the puddle, trying to forfeit the brightness, I was a rainbow that shined, in the pain of your misgivings.
