Thunderstorm
I look out at the evening sky
And heave a deep weary sigh.
I want to be standing outside
With my arms out open wide.
Thunder, lightening, and the rain
All natures version of my pain.
As the thunder across the skies coil
So does my soul have its turmoil.
Feels I should be out in this storm
Watching, waiting for it to transform
And knowing that on some level
This is my time to shine, to revel!
I want to feel the electricity
All that emotional complexity
To be released into the night air
So I can have not a care.
The storm does make me feel alive
Like there is nothing I can't survive!
It leaves me feeling like I am new,
Like there is nothing I can't do.
