Storm Warning

Please, be careful, no matter what you do.

I know you think it’s stupid, but the rain

Won’t quit because I worry about you

And this is me, trying to restrain

Myself from pushing you further away

And I’m supposed to be studying,

But instead I’m sitting here, wondering

If you know of the prayers I send your way.

 

Your truck cruises through water easily,

While speakers drown out the thundering storm

And your mind wanders around carelessly;

The heaters and roof keep you nice and warm.

 

I stare out the window of the fifth floor,

Each silent seconds makes me worry more.
