The Storm
Sometimes I'm like a hurricane
Tears falling like the rain
Sometimes I'm like a flood
Tears screaming all my pain
The rain falls on the fire
Turning it to steam
Emotions like acid rain
Take away the strength
The strongest statues crumble
Falling to the floor
Sometimes my lungs give out
They burn and scream for air
Sometimes my heart gets sore
I hear it beating in my ears
An earthquake of emotion
Destroys everything I've wanted
Everything I've fought for
Lays in a million pieces
Sometimes I want to disappear
Fade from your memory
Sometimes you're my worst
nightmare my only enemy
Haunting me in my dreams
Sometimes my fears take over
Waves slowly pull me under
I'm lost in my head again
The pain and sadness grows
Thoughts take me for a ride
Fight, Flight, or Hide
Sometimes I don't know
Where the wind will blow
Sometimes the scars feel fresh
The biggest in my chest
The bets are all on you
Its been you before the rest
All my chips are in
My heart, it beats for you.
