Summer Thunder

By Laura D August 30, 2016 Approaching sounds of summer thunder Ever so close and pulling me under I'm forgetting the place I found in the dark I'm losing myself; my soul to embark I drift to a time when I still had a way When everyone around, knew just what to say But nowadays I stand on brittle, shaky ground The thunder coming close; a truly searching sound My forehead dripping sweat, revealing every pore The face I have displaced is roaring out the door Exposing insecurities that never were a part of me A shallow face that makes me dream of losing posibilities If only just a fleeting breath to feed my burning lungs Give me an honest voice for every line I never sung As the thunder surrounds my broken bones Somehow I feel serenity, cause in this place I'm not alone
