Life like a Storm

The tide rolls in the wind,
it wraps around your body
holding you tight in its grasp.

The clouds are coming full force.
The lightning strikes willingly
you sense something will happen.

The rain starts to come down,
the sound of it is soothing.
It trickles down your face,
it's so cool and smooth.

Happy thoughts fill your head
Memories flash before your eyes,
some sweet and some sad.

The wind blows through your hair,
holding it back so you can see the dark
clouds sweep through the abandoned beach.

No one in site just you and the storm.
You think of all the people you loved.
For they have all left you.
Their sweet memories stay forever.
But a burden lays over your mind and heart.

The thought of them makes you wonder.
Should it have been this way or,
should it be them to decide.

Your life is full of surprises
One thing will happen and then
the next thing will happen,
to you for better of life or,
worse of your life.

The storm brews on your fear grows more fierce.
You look far across the water hoping to see someone
you know. then you wonder where will you go.

The storm comes over you and goes on it's free will.
For it will stay with you forever.

Your live is now the storm, for you choose a free life.
