01 - Ephemeral

One wednesday morning, I was waiting for a shuttle to get me into the office. I was sitting on the bench and as I looked up I saw a rainbow. The presence of which surprised me, its beauty - enough to make my heart flutter. Quite inevitably, I blinked for a second. I opened my eyes only to find it gone. I guess some things are just meant to be short-lived. Those things could make you happy, make you feel good, perhaps they could make the world seem a better place. You will probably find yourself short of breath on the wonders that those things could offer you. But the thing is, they are not meant for keeps. They just happened to... well, pass you by. And then that's it. The end.
------------------------------
It was just like you.

(well, I cannot be short of breath for you every day for the rest of my life, after all.)
