A Breeze

When you get sad, you feel on your cheek
A flutter of a wing
And the burden that weighs on you
Loses its purpose. Weeping eyes,
After so many rains of sorrow,
See the rainbow rising.

Something from beyond thoughts
Is right here, to give you a sign
That you are never alone,
Because inside you are two worlds:
One would want to make you whole
Apart, only in outline,
The other wants to untie you
And, so you don't stumble,
Be careful to keep your step
Half unseen.
