Dear diary

The sun came out today

The clouds were lifted as the snow faded to rain

Followed by a colorful rainbow 

Glowing bright in the sky

Searching for the jackpot 

Filled with life that lies on the other side 

Fighting against the wind as it forces me forward

Back into the dark cornered

Can’t find an escape

As I continue to run on top of the rainbow track

Something is there right in front of me

An image of myself dancing and jumping so happily

Wishing to see the pot I can no longer see
