Another lovely poem written by me. We have had a ton of storms go through my home town lately and so I just decided that this was an adequate comparison because of how similar the storm is to human feelings. I hope you enjoy!
This song is one of my favorites and it's by Simon & Garfunkel and it's the first song I think of when I think storm. I love this song so much!

My Heart is a Storm
~
My heart is a storm
Gray, black, and bruised
Their words like lightning
Cracking away the roots of my trees of life
Tiny inlets of hope, rain wash in
I seek shelter
Running as fast as my pale little legs can go
My home is the heart within my heart
Where the ones I love have passed through or stayed
Where I am most often held at
Rain pounds on my glassy eyes but I never let it escape
It might frighten my house and my true love
Oh my true love
The one ray of light the speck of sun
The one color of the world
You slash the clouds of saddenss and draw me in
So I stay dry and safe
Listening to the rain, the cracks, the chaos that surrounds
I smile knowing he's here to comfort me
And I grin because they can't hurt me
And well my heart is a storm
A well mastered one at that
A chaotic swirling mass
But I have the ones in my life that keep me grounded
And safe from the storm that rages inside
