The Storm
Darkness, my lovely shroud of comfort
protecting me, while unveiling me
permitting my hollowness to swell
to rise, to be seen
A costume providing no cover at all
yet calling, so lulling
everyday for me if no one else
never failing, always present
I close my eyes and sink into your beauty
my abyss, my sweet surender
your calming nature is my soul's perfect pleasure
hold me, obey me
Envelop me in your arms
always, and eternity
I yearn for your gently kiss
tasteless, and I savor..
I gaze upon five billion stars
so many, all lonely
One pivotal point alone on the Earth
so blinding, yet fading
Fervently, I scream out into the night
two eyes unseeing
everything appears imperfectly clear
rippled, yet flawless
Emotions run rampant with great speed and time
anger and loathing and resentment and .....love?
memories attack like a thousand tidal waves
I'm drowning, who will save me
The wind tears full on my temple
and harshly, so kindly
I welcome the pain, the adrenaline rush
resounding right through me
Then....The Thunder!!-the sky answers back
I'm here, I am waiting
Bolts and flashes like visions of truth
I can't take it, I won't make it
A shower errupts, I peer to the sky
It stings, I embrace it
The water I fear, erodes my facade
I want to keep hiding----now the lightning
Epiphanies from old, come claw at my face
the pleasure, so degrading
The chaos inside grows with the storm
inviting, yet so smiting
I feel my will rise like howls in the breeze
come and get me, wont you take me
I am your puppet--I do what I please!!!
I love it, I can't stand it
More desolate now than ever before
the drops drenching, my heart wrenching
such immaculate pain, just reciting my name
fragile whisper--so diminish
Then stopped the rain
Alone once again......
