The Poet in me is SCREAMINGA Poem by Maggie StrombergA little collection of poems about the weather of my daily lifeI wish you could understand the way I feel when I
think about you. The only way I can describe it is like thunder
crashing, And my very bones feel it, And there’s a sudden ache that never really goes
away. I forever love and hate the thunder, And I want to let it out, but I’m scared of what it
might become. I instead hide it within me, Deeper and deeper, Hoping that it becomes a part of me that makes me
stronger… But for now, all I feel is the ache. She’s like a
ray of sunshine With beautiful
red hair and eyes that are like a clear blue summer’s day. I’m a
thunderstorm, With eyes that
are ever changing and clouded by the rain that can never come. You’re blinded
by the light of the sun, And I too can
see her beauty, But how can I
live without the wind, The wind that
is you. You dictate my
movements, How I form and
what I am to be. I am nothing
without you but a mess of grey and unspilled rain. She’s the sun in your world, shining light everywhere, bringing light to your existence. I’m the moon, A pale reflection of her in the daytime. But at nighttime, I’m there, Shining and showing the stars and the universe at
its best. I don’t want the sun to blind you, But day and night each have their time.
I pray that mine comes before you sleep. © 2017 Maggie Stromberg |
