The Storm

    The Storm

    My hand hovers frozen with disbelief
    Over a clear sea of hidden emotion in which I’m unable to verbalize
    Stuck in a time where i cannot move nor see
    For i know not how to express otherwise what I’m feeling

    A black hole with no hope of light
    On how i can push play to fix my eyes to blink
    And once again mate lightning and thunder
    From the clouds that thicken what I cannot speak

    Taking a walk past what I used to know so well
    As I circle my mentality of all I can’t seem to grasp
    Losing control in the storm that took over
    Disabled and a temporary plea of insanity

    Holding my head up high but smoke fogging my senses
    Trying to understand what went wrong in the process
    Of all that was once a flow in my fingertips
    But now somehow interference has surfaced

    Keeping me from the air that I breathe when all is lost
    Shaking in the midst of the night where no one can hear me
    Wishing I can go back and thaw out the numb
    To reveal the emotion that I’m unable to verbalize

    A radiance seeps through as the storm slowly vanishes
    Enabling me to continue what once slipped away
    An empowering way to speak without saying a word
    The storm is never permanent

    i love this...i had to think about everything u said in here...ur words are powerful because of the effortless way u used them, they command to be heard and to be adored....and they are, simply because u use them that way...
