Misery [July 18, 2016]

A Poem by Dillan Courtright

The abyss within the sky burns with streams of lightning

The rain falls, soaked in blood, a shining crimson

The wind howls raging with the roaring thunder

One man stands alone, at its flaming center

 

Tears of misery stream down her broken face

A storm so beautiful, falling out of place

She wields steel, dripping and tainted

She has raw power, he has come to claim it

 

He stands within her violent wrath

Tornadoes tearing at him, into his past

She suffers before him, crying in agony

Tortured by his memories, by her own misery

 

She controls the storm with her emotions

He seeks destruction, pain and ruin

She stands before him, a goddess of nature

He stands a man, who fights for his desire

 

They clash, they shatter, they break

Their dance brings them together, blade to blade

Their steel reverberates with a sound of piercing light

Their fight breathes life into the dark of the night

 

Their battle is over, but it never ends

Their emotions clash, but never bends

A thousand years of crying, fighting, infinite misery

For she is the thunder and he is the lightning
