It is a faint rainbow in a summer storm
The warm raindrops stick
A pattering on the roof
As you sleep with the windows open
A slice of chocoflan in the middle of the night
The caramel lingers
Slivers of light escape
The refrigerator illuminates you
A broken mirror
Superglued together
If you look at it from an angle
You can’t see the cracks
