You were a hurricane
and maybe since day one I shouldn't have let myself get caught in your tornadoes of wind, rain and mystery
but if I hadn't I wouldn't have seen the rain that you created within your soul
your dark and unknown soul.
It rained for hours and hours I felt like the feeling of being drenched and cold would never fade
but nothing in life is as easy as walking into a hurricane and simply walking out
I walked into the hurricane because I wanted to see you,
not because I wanted to simply see the good parts
when I ask you to reveal yourself
the danger always includes
and your rain and giant waves were beautiful
because the rain symbolizes your sadness
and if sadness had never existed I don't think you would ever have the opportunity to feel.
I met the wind you carried within your lungs
as you heavily breathed out the pain that has been growing larger in your chest for years now
you finally released the pain,
you finally relaxed,
just as you took that giant breath,
just as you finally exhaled from holding in all that was for so long.
Your wind was beautiful,
you were free.
I didn't even struggle or try to escape your waves of tears that have been consuming your soul for your entire lifetime by now
death would always count as a possible outcome when you jump into a hurricane willingly
and I came for a reason
you were alone
and your hurricane could only ever stop when all pain has been released,
when you no longer need to hold in the air you've been keeping inside of you
only for it to build up larger than anyone would have ever wanted.
To have your tears form so large they created a storm within the ocean,
one that broke you to millions of pieces
the pieces that were now scattered throughout the ocean
keeping you from being whole again.
It would be as easy as opening a door,
to simply leave you and your suffering breaths
muffled by the sound of your sobs,
to simply dismiss your scattered pieces
that were now floating far out sea,
but only one with such cowardess and selfish mindset,
would have done that.
For I may be a fearful shattered heart,
but I never ignore the one's that can be mended.
Maybe you didn't know me,
maybe I didn't know you,
but I spent the rest of that day,
fishing out the missing pieces you used to call yours,
I spent the rest of my day trying to understand where home was for you,
but I never understood.
I think I know now,
and I promise to you,
you're almost there.
