We're words without a rhyme

[beldarzfixon]

The storm rages,

Without, within.

Lightning sends electrons free.

Here we stand, still bound.

Destruction's patterns the hand repairs,

Not the glasswork soul, cracked and soon undone.

Promises pulse deceptive energy,

Potential uncontained.

Rain can dry, wind sheltered.

Yet words light a fuse, igniting hope.

Very interesting! I’ll have to look up that song.

It was interesting that Dio's lyrics fit the "dark rainbow" definition in the Prompt. He was writing about depression and not being able to rely on supposed friends, he said, but wouldn't say the title refers to one of his former bands, Ritchie Blackmore's Rainbow (fans are sure it is, though, the coincidence is too juicy).

Fun to see you writing poetry! An auspicious start to the season.
