I Will Be The Calm During Your Storm

Like lost artwork I feel the darkness

Surround me without your

Beautiful blue eyes lighting my way.

 

Just know that even

When clouds fill them up

And the rain begins to fall

I will be there to soak up

Every single last drop.

 

For my heart is like a sponge

That will grow to any size

To accommodate all the water

The storm in your mind provides.

 

If you bring on a hurricane

I’ll be the strongest structure

That will defy the wind.

 

When you feel like a tornado

I will bend like the trees

But still stay rooted in my

Commitment to you.

 

Let a tsunami well up inside you

And I will become the dam

Keeping your emotions

From being flooded out.

 

When you feel the

Weight of the world

Crushing your spirit

I will be the Hercules

You always dreamed of.

This is beautiful, Dale -as strong love should be. The structure reminds me of a children's story called "The Runaway Bunny" - about all the things a parent would do to be with their child. Your poem is the grown-up version. :)

I have not read that one, will have to check it out… thank you Rita, appreciate the positive feedback, I may read this one tomorrow night.

Dale, knowing that someone is there for you no matter how you feel is a comforting thought during a rough patch for anyone. I am guessing that this is for Kayleigh. What a lovely poem for your lady. I really did love this, it gives others hope.

[The Rock And Roll Cowboy(REBEL WITH A CAUSE)]

Yes of course it is for Kayleigh, she loved it by the way, or said she did… Well this world can certainly use more hope.
