A raging typhoon

Contributed by lord_sogi on Thursday, 7th September 2006 @ 12:22:10 AM in AEST
Topic: oops



There in the distance is a raging typhoon,
Can no one see it or hear?
The luminous waves are coming soon,
So overwhelming that I can not bear.

As it approaches I can see flames,
They are building stronger,
Maybe god is just playing games,
Until we are no longer.

A simple solitude,
We try to hide ourselves from danger,
From anything that is lewd,
But in itself we become a stranger.

Those crashing waves rumble loudly,
We pretend that they are not there.
We tell ourselves we are not cowardly,
But we show our fear.

I can see the sky so vivid,
But I can no longer stand,
Life no longer seems lucid,
Death becomes quicksand.

As I prepare for my departure,
I slowly feel renewed strength
Like a small rapture,
At the end’s length.

Somehow I am alive,
But I am still weak,
Although I have survived,
I know my spirit is meek.

I can sense another wave
This time it has grown,
I can see my early grave,
My soul is all alone.

Is this the end for me?
Do I sit here in dismayed?
Nothing left to see,
As my soul slowly fade?

Or do I rise?
Learning from my fall,
And reach toward the skies,
Above the coming squall.

Great write telling of the constant struggle to survive the pains and stress that come. It's the spirit within that conquers - you've written that truth so well.
