She Beckons

Life has its moments Where you're reminded why you're alive. I'm standing outside, Beneath the night sky. I've drifted away, Following droplets of rain As thunder roars All around me. Trees are singing, Rustling in the wind. My arms are wrapped around my waist, clutching a blanket close. The water can't touch me, But I'm swimming with it. All around me, Nature is angry with force, But she is beautiful. Thunder screams for some sort of apology While lightning dances through an echoing grey sky. I can't look away, Can't tear at my gaze. Because in this moment, I have forgotten everything Except the vision before me. If there is a god, She has looked into my soul And has promised me Five minutes of bliss. This is my moment. I'm here, right now, So I can witness this.
