A Breathing Tempest

You used to be that tempest
A raging tempest in a moving car
Thunder echoes in your chest
A chest keeping all that is bizarre
Relinquished every last in a heartbeat
Unshrouding your vulnerabilities
You whispered to the one who'd make the sky split
To the one who knows your past victories
Tell's about this hamster wheel
Wheeling through your afterthought 
You sure sound like a tempest, still
Still a tempest, just in a broken teapot
