Save You From The Storm

Such a beautiful girl drowning in the storm she creates herself.

Every time I see you
It's like a waterfall
Crashing down on my lungs
Stealing the air from my body,
Forcing my heart to skip a beat.

You are so fragile.
Such a gentle ocean
Submitting itself to a rough storm.
I want to reach out my hand
And rescue you from this torture
That you put yourself through.

Punishment; that's what you call it.
Yet I see no reason for you to be punished.
You are being you.
The very thing that makes you
Beautiful, fun and amazing.
You are being punished fir being yourself
Because she doesn't appreciate your beauty.

There are no words to describe you
Or the explosion of butterflies that erupt in my tummy
Every time I think of you.
How your voice is like a sweet lullaby,
How your touch is so soft and gentle
That it keeps my skin tingling
Even after you move away from me...
And how when you aren't by my side
When you aren't looking at me
I get so sad and jealous
And I wish to be all you you see.

I don't know what words to say to you
To express how I feel about you
All I know is that every time you're near
It's like I'm drowning beneath a waterfall
And all I want is to save you from this storm
That you submit yourself too
Because you are so fragile
And you cling to the very lightning bolts that strike you.
You are so fragile,
Clinging to the pain because it makes you feel alive
But its tearing you apart inside.
You are so fragile.

Author's Note

poem that was suppose to be about my one of my friends but then morphed into something completely different then it was suppose to be. The beginning is a little weird and I'm not sure if it fits with the rest but i like it. Let me know what you think.
