Premium Member A Thunderstorm Is Beautiful
The art was most beautiful on the dark canvas: a background that set up a stage for unfolding explosions of light struck beneath growls of thunder as swift swords of steel slash full clouds once holding- the deluge, escaping as a glistening wonder. The art was most beautiful on the dark canvas, as Moon hid behind the large battle, ongoing. Her sky...

Squall's Godspeed
Clouds heartshaped breaking The downpours between us separating Wrong to say I am in love Wrong to seep in with this water that's kissing and falling. God, you drip so much into me. The petrichor ~ on me ~ you fear The petrichor ~ on you ~ you fear The sky's cracks will slowly heal to blue I will remember tight each tear for...

Premium Member LIGHTHOUSE IN THE STORM

This is my original poem. ...

The Umbrella Story
He’s someone she once knew. He’s the reason she loves the rain and why she finds herself always waiting for the next storm. The bigger the storm, the more she remembers, sitting on the back porch at Angel Ave, wrapped in his arms. He always made her feel safe during the loud cracks of thunder. The...

Each inch of my niche
The whirlwind rolled in rings at the eyewall, Wild gale blew through the open tropical field. I'd forgotten to close the windows tight, And the ensuing rain inundated each inch of my niche. The hurricane hurriedly stripped the veld of its peace. Dry air pacified the expanse of the grassland, The massive flood drained into a sunken cesspool, My thoughts swayed to...

A ghost still lingering in my head, a shadow of what once was Echoes of your voice, did I hear amongst them a mournful sob I walk on, I walk on, I walk on There is no point in looking back; I can’t change what can’t be My heart is broken, but at least this broken heart remains free I...

Petrichor
Something was changing one day— I felt it when a cool breeze blew. Restless branches danced and swayed while the world around me grew silent. With the first touches of rain I smelled ozone in the air and in a moment of glory raised my arms. I embraced the moment as mine alone but looked for the word to describe how I felt like...
