the eye of the storm

the wind whispers like your hushed sobs, comforting and powerful

the rain falls like your bitter tears, drowning the painful memories

the thunder rumbles like your aching mind, shouting above the anger

the lightning illuminates the sky like the glow of your cigarette, out shining the darkness in your soul

the dark, stormy clouds billow like your shield of smoke, choking out the voice of hate

and then the storm died out, leaving nothing but dewdrops and a mess in its wake. in the morning, the sun was shining.
you died out too, leaving nothing but teardrops and sadness at your wake. in mourning, the sun was crying.
