Beauty That Kills

i see an ocean wave crashing with no mercy destroying everything in its path i see an ocean wave killing other people swallowing their houses and their life all of what they worked for is now gone, nobody can save what under the water now this one wave took everything killed all of their dreams and hopes but still it did it so gracefully that it made me hope it made me think of flowers in an open field flowers so colorful that even when their asleep they take your breath away from the beauty they unleash a beauty so disastrous that it kills everything in their path?!! wow, this beauty's like a curse on earth it serves as well but at the same time it kills are hearts the hearts of people filled with dreams well, none of that matters now because their dead and so is their dream some may have thought of college after a four year high school degree they all had hopes just like you and i well now they dont even have a home to look out of the window on a long dreadful night but those who made it out alive they can still dream in fact they can make it happen build a knew hope far away from the water far away from the light they may even escape the cold dreadful nights but its useless because even in the desert will they live a hurricane will start the grief again so you keep building, keep achieving going nowhere with your life just remember you can never run enough to hide from the wrath of God
