A Quiet Storm

A quiet storm is raging in my head The mangled thoughts, they churn out of control Confusion is what’s left of the debris A lifeless lump contains an empty soul A heart bereft of love will tempt the clouds I’ll not survive the darkness and the rain Nothing will grow where love does not exist Nothing will live, a dry barren terrain A quiet storm is raging in my head Why you have gone, a mystery to me Relive; rethink each day, each word you said I must escape, to shelter I must flee
