The Storm

Dark black clouds rolled in from the North

Screams and sirens filled my ears

I stood near the edge

Waves crashed into the rocks below

Wind whistled through my hair

The ocean tried to warn us with tall vicious waves

We didn't listen so here we are

Turning on my heel I walk away

The storm powerful and mad follows

I see the shelter and my legs are now running

Sweat and rain roll down my cheeks

Any pain that I feel is washed away for the moment

Now inside, the storm continues to take out its anger on us

My house is hit by a giant wave of wind and water

Washing away the pain and sorrow that once lived there

The pain and hurt all washed away

Today is the start to a brand new day

Out on the cliff, I turn on my heel

Making my way to what is real
