Storming Through My Mind
Thoughts begin swirling, storming through my mind
and uproots a memory I did not want to find
and there you are, like yesterday
As if time had not come out to play
No chains are ever needed on this mortal coil
Somehow you imprison me
using my sweat and toil
I am just your prisoner, yearning to be free
Soon the storm subsides, but it leaves nostalgic winds
That keep blowing through my memory
With all the broken images
that are haunting me within
Weeks and months go by, time is never stalling
I hope my thoughts release me from the din
But as soon as I hear freedom calling....
another storm begins!
