Emerging From the Storm

Everything I was working on was for us A new journey was calling out to me from the horizon When the storm hit strong pulling me into it's uncontrollable fury of flaming rain I couldn't deny being saturated to the bone while burning up inside of the Internal hell that had overtaken my body and my soul My breathing heavy but shallow My heart pounding but dead My head full but empty Someone keeps wringing their heavy grief mops through what I thought to be my stomach The inside of my body no longer belongs to me Only to the storm passing through with fury I don't have an umbrella for this one I have no shelter from this one A force grabbed me by the throat Was it to shake me to awaken me Or was it trying to suffocate me I do know that I am alive Something is emerging I am for me It never began for us My skin awaits the arrival of my soul to step inside to continue this journey as one
