The Storm

There is a storm
raging inside my soul.
so strong I can't see anything else.
Thunder crashing all around
Lightning striking so very bright.
I curl up alone and afraid
Hoping for a break in the rain.
Wanting it to be over with all my heart.
Wondering if it will ever end.

Then somehow through the storm
you find me and take my hand.
Instantly, the storm clears.
The sun shines brightly,
and I'm no longer afraid.
Everything bright and beautiful again.
Everything perfect for a moment in time.
But Like the rainbow there in the sky,
how long until it disappears?

This poem is so touching and heartfelt. I like how you try to save yourself just like anyone would curl up alone and afraid. It makes me feel sorry for you. Then the second stanza you escape by being found by a one true hero. So clearly explained and a really loving piece
