Thunderstorm Love

As she talks to him on the phone, 
Her eyes swell up with tears,
But she’s smiling.
She gasps.

You can tell by her eyes that she’s happy.
He’s not leaving again.
The smile never leaves her face as she talks to him for hours.
He makes her so happy to be alive,
He makes it all worthwhile.

And she knows that he’d do anything for her, 
She would do the same for him.
Some say that it’s too good to be true,
That love is just a waste.
They lie.
Love is the best feeling in the world.
The one good addiction one has to another.
And they’ll run away together,
Just to watch the sunsets.

He’ll look into her eyes and see only himself.
He’s her whole world,
She could never let him go.

Her eyes gently close as she remembers 
His sweet, sweet kisses. 
The smile on her face is one of true happiness. 
Nothing could ever replace the feeling she gets when she looks at him.
The shock is like lightning to her heart.

Just the thought of him loving her makes her heart melt. 
 She’s flying high on cloud 9. 
No one could ever replace him.

His hugs the thunder,
His kisses the lightning.
And his eyes…
The rain on a sunny day…
