Just When I Thought It Was Over

JUST WHEN I THOUGHT IT WAS OVER…

Just when I thought it was over
You unleash the storm
Seething underneath your deep skin,
With the venomous look, you send me packing
to the land of silence and calm

Just when I thought it was over
	You curiously whisper into my deafened ear
	Sending the message of cautionary
	Yet, I thought it was concern
	More of a cover-up
	Once again, you sealed the vacuum

Just when I thought it was over
	You stir up the raging heat at heart
	It had been long forgotten
	but here we are again
	breaking my cloud of silence
	calling me back from the land of absence

Just when I thought it was over
	I’m dumb-folded by the broken cloud
	dropping like the hailstorm ,my words
 rumble in the silence
	falling with the thud of “enough is enough”
	with unshaken confidence yet feeling so inadequate.
	I empty my dismay

Just when I thought it was over
	Your words, falling like the rain,
	cut through my tender broken heart.
	Say no more..I need not hear more,
	my situation is clearly defined now,
	that it was never over
