Waiting On the Thunder

~ I was jarred awake by a storm last evening while dreaming of us, we were together and we were happy A bright flash of lightening ignited the evening sky flooding my room with light, allowing me once again to see that I was actually alone Stunned and saddened, I sat there in silence waiting on the thunder... it never came
