The Storm
Darkened sky on the horizon
Rolling thunder in the mountain
Lightening striking fear in the heart
It is trying its best to tear me apart.
Words of hate spoken that day
Fearful, angered words of no faith
Burning tears drown out all my hope
Simply words of fear that I spoke.
Lost in a brief moment of despair
But, realizing it was only my fear
Doing my best to understand why
Yet, knowing it was my words of lie.
Asking forgiveness for all I said
Trying my best to stay focused ahead
Storms pass and the sun will shine
Leave the fear and thunder behind.
