The Storm

by EoB   Jun 7, 2006


What sound can stir this silence?
The hush before the storm.
Horizons struck with panic.
The clouds have lost their form.

The sound of thunder, roaring
across this sullen field.
A flash of lightning renders
a crushing wrath, revealed.

Its hatred overtakes me
I could have run, but nay!
Amidst the tameless chaos
My tears are swept away.

The winds thus leave me, shattered,
of tears and pain bereft.
Upon this lifeless meadow,
I stand with nothing left.
