One Peace Part I

The rich tapestry 
of billowing greens
assembling uniformly
forming layers upon layers
of bushes and shrouds
in spreading their hands
embracing the instances
of thunder and lightning
dancing wildly together

And when heaven
and earth
becomes one
hold still
and listen
to the crying rain
washing away
all the pain
leaving the daylight
in an utter disdain
for the splattering
silver drops
drumming a long scream
as if pleading
on you
to refrain
from staring straight 
at the sun again

The cold madness
and intense numbness
intensified
breaking your inside
into pieces
yet you still
trying to hold still
and yearning 
for some
induced comfortness

The rain and the dark clouds
hitting hard
into the night
time to just hold still
and listen
to the sigh
of the night
and see beyond the might
of your sight
of the moonlight
shining 
so bright
in battling
for a taste
of the daylight
