The Rainbow Man

From the tears of the Sun
Because of War and Sadness
A glimmering Rainbow came to be
Shining defiant on the sky

And a million souls wished
things strange and things happy
and a Rainbow Man arrived
from the edge of the Rainbow

His clothes shiny and multicolored
his smile warm , his eyes sharp
And all the people sent him away
Cause their greatest fault was, their wish
not be seen as sad or needy

And the man left, without even speaking
his clothes tattered
his smile shattered
his eyes are blind
And he stands on a cliff

like a ragged flag of hope
that none pays honor

like a crusade that has been led astray
like parting lovers with nothing left to say
