Storms Weathering


The tears in your eyes are like steaming rocks on mine. 

I cannot tear myself away from what you are feeling,
it is too painful and I wish it was I who was suffering. 

I cannot understand why you would have this happen,
Like hail brushing the roofs of a church where the man being baptised 

has now been knocked unconscious and bleeding.
