Stormy Night

wind swirls all about
lighting flashes thunder crashes  
tis' such a stormy night
I can almost touch the light
as I take flight to my feet
I wonder why I left my seat

then comes the calm of the storm
wind dies, the souls cry and the earth shakes in it's wake

why did he let the storm come
was it just to shake us up maybe he sick of us all
he is the seeker of truth and light
so why must he send down rain with all his might
