Storm Inside the Brain

She was beautiful like the rainbow. Her fragrant smiling words of luminance. . Unleashed adrenaline into his mind.. with tactile thoughts of proximal paradise. His five senses collaborated a screenplay. .. with billions of brilliant tangled neurons. He imagined... .the fantasy of being in love. But deep in the sky of his heart.. Gathered dark chasing clouds. Storms of rain, snow, sand, fire.. swirled up the grey matter. The trident crooned,... "Probably","Possibly", "Surely".. Temperature rises to drop the pressure.. A storm breaks inside the brain. The folds and crease immerse in chaotic squall. Pulverises the pernicious clouds. Thunderstorms rumble loud. Sparks of lightning flicker. Perfidious friction is now visible. Resonance of sight and sound. In ledger of brain transactions drowned. A sullen algebra of equations.. with iterations of sixth sense convolute a restless nexus of unknown variables. With fearless freedom, the brain breaks and shakes.. A hurricane of frustration. . A tornado of desperation. . Yes..He endured the disruptive baritone storm. It crashed him hard.. He muttered, " It's just a passing crush ". A thick blanket wraps and obscures the windows of his eyes. The impending rain peacefully waits for the sun.. for the beautiful rainbow of true love 16th October 2018.
