If you get so wrapped up in your own pain enough to not notice anyone else's. Then you might as well dig a hole in the ground and bury the dirt on over yourself because it won't really do you any good.

my pulse is exact thunder

as I look into your eyes,

you cause the lightning that strikes to mold my veins into shape and size,

surrounded in night,

for a couple of seconds,

you illuminate the dark skies.

 

I see the clouds now,

and all I did was look into your eyes.

because for every thunder that roars you give me life.

it doesn't have to be raining to feel like you're life is being poured down on by rain until you meet the one... who can make it all go away
