The Storm Is Near

The Storm Is Near By MEH3 As I sit in this field I looked in the sky And noticed a storm is near Thinking Should I run in fear Or sit and see what's near As the wind got stronger I started second guessing myself Like, why am I still sitting here But something came over me And I wanted to see What the sky will look like once it passed Even though some may say It's dangerous I saw it as an opportunity An opportunity To look fear in the eye As this storm passed me by In the midst of my storm I stop worrying about how it would end And let go of all my fears Even though I felt lonely A presence of peace Came over me And I realized that I was being protected To see a brighter day I felt my situation getting better As I continued to pray On this dark and stormy day Even as I was in my storm I looked beyond it And saw gleams of light It was like He was challenging me To allow Him to move the clouds And shed some light I heard a voice say Don’t waste a perfect storm So I continued pushing forward I noticed that it was working, And the storm that's here Will soon pass After every storm comes the calm So, I changed my thinking and said Clear skies getting near! #ItzMeThePoet
