The Torrents of Separation

As the wind blew with the sound of a roar, The storm clouds moved in over the tree line, And the rain quickly fell in a downpour. Across the sky a bright lightning bolt tore, And the storm clouds began to intertwine, As the wind blew with the sound of a roar. Suddenly, my mind and heart were at war— A cathedral bell rang the hour of nine, And the rain quickly fell in a downpour. Through the rain, I saw her whom I adore— Then, she swiftly vanished without a sign, As the wind blew with the sound of a roar. She had been all that I was looking for, I hastened to find shelter to repine, And the rain quickly fell in a downpour. Looking at a puddle, I wished once more To see her face reflecting over mine. As the wind blew with the sound of a roar, And the rain quickly fell in a downpour. © 2021
