Rainbow in the Night


If you risk, and if you ask

All the secrets in this world, will be eager to unfold

You can’t halt, you can’t sleep

It’s only your fault, if you’ve taken life with a pinch of salt


There is pain, and a prospect to shine

Nothing to gain, if you freeze your brain

So bring in the light, bring in the rain

It’s only your fault, if you want a rainbow in the night


The road of life, doesn’t go left or right

It’s a one way street, with the dreams out of sight

Hang on to the bus, with your entire mite

It’s only your fault, if you choose to alight


The fruits of your labor, may not be for you to savor

The dice of god, may not run in your favor

But work you will, and shine you shall

To discover oneself, is to know it all


Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented and fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small doesn't serve the world. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone-Akeela and the Bee
