Rainbow flames
Sear my eyes
Myriad colors
Dance restlessly

Once they were
Prism bound
Then harsh sunlight
Unlocked the way

Rainbow flames
Tear my heart
Myriad colors
Leap wistfully

Now they are
Light bound
For harsh sunlight
Does not forget

Rainbow flames
Leave my eyes
Myriad colors
Die slowly

Soon they will be
Bound for death
As harsh sunlight
Calls even in descent

This is about a prism and the colors it inspires.
