Hurricanes
As their fingers interlock
Her hands are shaking faster than a
A house during a 5 magnitude earthquake
As their lips move in close
Her heart is beating was beating so loud it sounded like a
Drumset was living in her chest
When their lips finally touch
The hurricane of thought in her head subside
The never ending fear of things going wrong
The thought that this isn’t right
The knowing that will never go anywhere
Went away
For those three seconds
There was blissful silence
But as they pulled away
As the fireworks and the silence stopped
The hurricane came back and came back stronger
