Volcano
Serenity lost in a tempestuous cloud
Wailing to the rumbling thunder
as darkened skies were painted in cinnabar.
losing its crown to the fleeting rain
Dew flooding from the gazing moon
Singing sophomore to its pitch
beat by beat, a daily homage
To the dancing audience
spilling beans, running cats
screaming of the hidden fury
Buried within the heart's rubble
furrowed its brow in deep thought.
Hot lava spiraling in the heart's core
Spritzing from its mouth
burning all along its path.
Till flow lost its source
calm the noise.
Listen to the silence.
Wrecking the pot wide
like a caldera from a collapsing crater
scars forever visible.
