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
