I Looked for a Rainbow

I looked for a rainbow...
But, alas, there was none.
Only dark clouds remained there,
Deserted by the sun.

Tears streamed down as raindrops
And ran into the ground,
Hiding there forever...
Great darkness does abound.

Sun cannot find the tears,
To chase them all away...
Never again to surface,
Hiding in dank, dark clay.

Heartbeats have faded,
Melting into a pool,
This burden gone forever...
Secrets no more to rule.
