Thrust in the centre of the storm, all I could see, was you

The winds raged, the rain pelted The air howled like a mad wolf, hungry for blood Fright gripped me with ice cold claws And I did not feel safe from inside my house I armed myself with courage, aware that rainbows Shall show themselves after some time And the warmth of the sun Shall allow me to wear my confidence again As I usually do, like a prized accessory! Yet, when the house got lifted up By powerful invisible hands, I found myself in the heart of the storm Surrounded by a play of nature so out of my grip That I could not even hear my voice as I cried out for help! But then I saw you, handing out a hand to me Reaching for me and grasping me in a tight hug And I turned calm again as the pace of your breath Matched with mine and the thumping of your heart beats Bid me to forget the havoc wreaking all around me And to hear the calming and mellifluous tunes of a flute As it played our favorite song, that same which had always Held us together ever since we locked eyes with each other And allowed vines to grow from our hearts to tie us together! The storm may rage, the storm may destroy my environment But as long as I shall have you in my heart, Life shall always be calm, stable and comforting!
