The Storm

The thunder rolls
Lightening pierces the sky,
And with every blow that falls
I accept that I’m going to die.
Rain pounding,
Hail falling outside,
The distant rolling thunder
Is just a reminder of my fright.
He is Yelling, Screaming,
So many bruises,
And if I live over this tonight
In the morning there will just be excuses.
His dinner wasn’t cooked just right,
I didn’t look at him the right way,
All I know is I’m dying inside,
A little more with each passing day.
The storm rages on,
And so does his temper,
And I’m in the floor
All I can do is just whimper.
Seeing the hate flash through
The crystal ice of his eyes,
That the kindest words in public,
To me, it can’t disguise.
Terrified so much now, I can’t even scream,
Watch as the lightening strikes…
Then suddenly I’m lifted
Up towards the light.
Being held and comforted… I’ll be alright…
The thunder has stopped here… and so have my tears…
Am I dreaming?
I could stay here for years!
And then I wake up,
Lying again on the living room floor,
I’ve made it through another night without dying
And as the thunder rages outside, I can’t remember what I’m even living for.
