Tempestuous Night
. The air is so humid
As the storm rages outside
And I toss and turn in my bed
Sleep evading me
Lightning traces, visible on the inside of my eyelids,
Illuminate your image and brighten my mind
How I long for your cool touch
On my damp skin
As the rain beats heavy
Sweet, hard rain
To feed the needy earth
