When the sky has fallen
You stand amidst the rummage of desolate fields
No one around but yourself
Too confused to ask what has happened
But with soon realization loneliness settles in
Tears begin to stream like a great hurricane
Stuck in the eye of the storm in complete turmoil in distress and dismay you scream out
You pound the ground you stand on
Yet nothing gives in but you
You succumb to the tempest
Grief immanent
You pour out and cry out until the stream runs dry
Until there is nothing left
You failed
But you will learn and the tempest will pass and you will rise higher than the clouds that once hung high above you
Failure is not an option
But it is as immanent as death itself
Succumb but then overcome
