LOVE'S RAINBURST
Love is like the pouring rain,
falling down
a shower of sweet-honeyed pain
wetting thru and thru from foot to crown.
Love's rainburst cleanses the heart,
tho it may drive you temporarily insane,
wounded from the very start,
shot with cupid's dart.
Within love's veil of tears,
like in the rainstorm,
lies a sholeful of trepidation and fears,
anxious trembling drugging you like chloroform
Love makes you go silly,
leaves you walking around like a zombie,
mumbling and talking to yourself willy-nilly,
twitching like an eerie, junkie, kewpie.
It leaves your head feeling like a wall of stones,
makes you lose sleep
infuses a creepy feeling right down to your bones
bring out behaviour totally like a creep.
But after love's drenching comes the rainbow,
without fail,
the mother of pearl afterglow,
of fright hued confetti shining thru the veil.
Rainbows following the rainburst put maladies aright
make the darkest night leak light,
truly the souls delight,
makes all the beautiful world seem right!
