Natural Disaster
natural disaster
lip trembles
an earthquake of a heartbreak
she held on so tight
but she was blinded by the lies
then it all came crashing down
bones shiver
a blizzard colder than his heart
she tried to stay warm
but she was frozen in fate’s path
then the snow piled higher and higher
mouth goes dry
a drought sucking up all hope
she was always optimistic
but she couldn’t take the heat
then it all turned to dust
eyes flood
a rainstorm threatening to drown the fish
she kept her head above the water
but she got caught in the current
then the waves took her under
stomach swirls
a tornado of emotions
she was so strong
but she fell for his charm
then the wind destroyed it all
it’s unavoidable.
