" Through the Storm"

Wed, 05/29/2013 - 16:26 -- jkatt77

I gaze at the ceiling, listen to the storm overcome
I can’t remove the feeling, everything in me is numb
Thoughts flood into my vacant mind as I hear the rain pour
I think about previous times I’m hoping you knock on my door
The thought of you consumes me I then recollect what’s gone
I don’t want to let this be I still need to hold on
Memories of you will not be omit you are so very dear
But I need to grasp a grip, as I realize, I wipe a tear
It turned over in my mind as a bolt of lightning appears
All of these feelings won’t go away and that’s my biggest fear
When I turn off the lights to lay my head and heart to rest
I’m hoping the war between our minds is just only but a test
Over the love that you delivered I want to undo what has been done
I want to turn around and see you, but the darkness has overcome the sun
Everything I have is weakness, the strength you took with you
I want to be together, but you keep telling me it’s all through
I will run through the storm hoping you are the rainbow that renews

"I will run through the storm hoping you are the rainbow that renews". Wow. This is poetry. Very rarely do I get the goosebumps that accompany listening to a spoken word piece while only reading a poem. This poem is riveting.
