In The Storm

Sky grows dark
Clouds condense
Still air charged

Deep breath
Dense air
Filling my soul

Flashes ignite
Lines drawn
But for an instant

Blinded for this moment
Pupils dilate
Eyes narrow
Raindrops fall

I have waited
Far too long for you

I Look up
Teasing playfully
Give me your worst
I whisper to the clouds

Lightning splits
Aged oak
Ever so close

I feel the force
Hair standing on edge
Rain pelting in punishment

I raise my arms
Palms touch above my head
As I slowly lower them
To my heart

And I know
Beyond any doubt
There is nothing more

I close my eyes
Become one with
The fury
The force

There is nothing else
Just this storm
