Storm

A rumble and a roar
Stillness gone that was here before

A sense of trepidation setting in
Every bodies worried for what's coming

The tempo raises with the dread of doubt
Electric fails and lights go out

The sway of nature, such power and force
The echoes of calling from souls lost

Engine's gone, she can't the strain
The dark waves call out all of our names

The water grows tall then disappears 
Elevated falls, no mercy here

The roars of ocean rip through our ears
The banging waves; explosive tears

The wind whistles it's solemn tune
Moonlight lights the way of doom
