TEARS IN THE STORM I stand alone in the midst of a raging storm. Lightening flashing all around, breaking the darkness. Rain pounding out the beat of my heart, Fresh and clean as it cleanses my soul and restores my strength... I do not fear this wonderious spectical, NO, I do not fear... Rather I embrace it ! It brings me, humibly, to my own mortality. I look into the raging storm And I wonder will this be the night I die? Will this storm take me when it goes? Is this how my life will end? A lifetime of looking death in the face To die in such a spectical of beauty? Strangely enough though, Even realizing that at any moment My life could end I am not afraid... I believe in Mother Universe ! When I have done all I must this lifetime then and only then, I will pass from this life and it will not happen one second sooner! Suddenly my thoughts are shattered as the lightening strikes a tree A little ways in front of me,the sound deafening... The flash almost blinding even out of the corner of my eye... And I drop to my knees and try to cry... I try so very hard to cry... PLEASE JUST LET ME CRYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY... So much death... SO much pain I have known this lifetime that I cannot even cry anymore... Every time I try to let even a little of the pain out through tears... I get ill and must stop... I fear I am getting to the point I cannot feel anymore... To feel is to hurt and I cannot take the pain in my soul anymore. So I carress the storm raging in the night Letting the rain serve as my tears flowing down my face and washing away Some tiny tidbit of sorry so I may make it through Another day, another pain, another lost love... And yes even the inevidable deaths... AND I SCREAM OUT Fighting the storm to be heard knowning no one can hear me. Giving myself to the night, the storm and the pain... And for a moment, one brief moment... I feel life again... I feel pain... I feel deep sorrow... And yes, I can even cry against the storm cause no one will know And it is hidden deep in the raging storm and the lightening... I cheat life out of a moments freedom to feel once again... Then as suddenly as the storm began, it ends as does my brief time to feel... So I sit in the aftermath of the storm as a new days dawns And just breath in deep the refreshing breath of life in this moment a Gift of Mother Nature's to mankind... She takes with her in the storms passing enough of my pain And sorrow to let me continue in my work for her till it is time for me to go... Still what I would give to cry... Just ONCE more and not have to fight the storm To CRY !!! To be HEARD !!! To FEEL !!! TO LOVE !!! TO LIVE !!! TO BE FREE !!!
