Tiny Rainbows

You were the only one.
 I fancied you all I had left.
 We knew it was true and instinctively left one another to mend our own holes in our chests
 In a dream we were pieces of ships
 We were attached from our feet to our hips
 And forgetting that icebergs were only the tips
 As we crashed I could read the relief on your lips
 But most dreams were better and we all were one
 And everyone just became part of the sun
 And then shot back out in a gajillion rays
 All our ancestors and children and futures they made
 Would just shine down and light up the day
 And light blended better than our bodies ever could
 In the days when we were made out of flesh or wood
 Yeah we weren't the same color though we knew that we could be
 We were ourselves but blended at the edges like it should be
 And now, separated, your color still shines on my sleeve
 With my parents, favorite teacher, first ever pen-pal and me
 The more that we share, yes the more that we grow
 And we all became tiny rainbows.
