I Open a Window

Lying in bed

Windows next to my head

Quiet inside

Energy has died

The sky fills with light

Illuminating the night

I am not alone

Then the startling tone

Of thunder crashes

And the wind thrashes

Straight through the trees

Bringing a cold breeze

I open a window

In order to follow

This storm that entreats me

Makes me feel free

Calming to look at

Begins my thoughts that

Went silent before

Feel lively once more

The storm has blown

I am not alone
