The Thorn of the Storm

by KeyxMashingxParody   Apr 27, 2007


As I watch the rain fall,
I feel my eyes swell.
Tears slow in their tracks,
And all is coming well.

As I see the lightning strike,
I feel the pain again.
Pricking my spine,
From beginning to end.

As I hear the thunder roar,
My ears begin to burn.
Full of screams and bruises,
Full of what I've earned.

As I touch the cold glass,
I rest where you had once lain.
Staring at deep cracks,
On my white window pane.

As I study each tree,
Bug, bush, and plant.
My thoughts begin to scramble,
Over each scar on my wrist and hands.

As I lay here tonight,
Beaten like a storm...
I forgive you for everything,
For every rose has a thorn.

  • I agree with Tyanna, I am speachless, it was dead on, my favorite stanza was...

    "As I hear the thunder roar,
    My ears begin to burn.
    Full of screams and bruises,
    Full of what I've earned. "

    But it was all good. lol... Very powerful message, great flow. Just all and all a wonderful work of art, keep it up.
