Alize Michelet Poet Free verse

Until the Next Storm

It’s cold, dark, scary.
Suffocating
Waves crushing on me

It hurts stings
Buries
My chest underwater 

I can’t breathe.
You are over me and under me
And I can’t come back up

But then you let loose.
The water warms up
And the pressure leaves my heart.

It doesn’t hurt anymore,
Now you carry me,
Make me float 

Singing me to sleep,
And it feels perfect,
And I know everything is going to be all right

Until the next storm comes.
