My Storm

in #writing7 years ago

dark clouds roll in and obstruct the setting sun

the wind whistles a shrill tune against the loose panes of my home

water seeps through the roof and drops into a bucket—plop, ta-thump, plop, ta-thump
Or is that my heart?

lightning illuminates everything, then my blindness returns
thunder roars, and my foundation shakes

Bang! The door slams open
no escape from the torrent—
FLASH, CRACK
—it rages on

a flash of ire
a clap of hostility
a gust of malice
a flood of regret

Will this storm ever stop?

Look, a rainbow!

Fantastic. Add a photography tag and maybe beauty for the rainbow. The tags just make it show up in more feeds.
