The Storm

Darkness, my lovely shroud of comfort protecting me, while unveiling me permitting my hollowness to swell to rise, to be seen A costume providing no cover at all yet calling, so lulling everyday for me if no one else never failing, always present I close my eyes and sink into your beauty my abyss, my sweet surender your calming nature is my soul's perfect pleasure hold me, obey me Envelop me in your arms always, and eternity I yearn for your gently kiss tasteless, and I savor.. I gaze upon five billion stars so many, all lonely One pivotal point alone on the Earth so blinding, yet fading Fervently, I scream out into the night two eyes unseeing everything appears imperfectly clear rippled, yet flawless Emotions run rampant with great speed and time anger and loathing and resentment and .....love? memories attack like a thousand tidal waves I'm drowning, who will save me The wind tears full on my temple and harshly, so kindly I welcome the pain, the adrenaline rush resounding right through me Then....The Thunder!!-the sky answers back I'm here, I am waiting Bolts and flashes like visions of truth I can't take it, I won't make it A shower errupts, I peer to the sky It stings, I embrace it The water I fear, erodes my facade I want to keep hiding----now the lightning Epiphanies from old, come claw at my face the pleasure, so degrading The chaos inside grows with the storm inviting, yet so smiting I feel my will rise like howls in the breeze come and get me, wont you take me I am your puppet--I do what I please!!! I love it, I can't stand it More desolate now than ever before the drops drenching, my heart wrenching such immaculate pain, just reciting my name fragile whisper--so diminish Then stopped the rain Alone once again......
