Into the storm, treading
me or the storm?
Footsteps slow and hesitant.
Trembling veins.
Muscles and Brain
keep the body moving
and storm raging.
Lightning strikes
Sight goes blind
Thunder roars
Release of vocal chords
Rain downpours rain downpours
Sweat seeps from every pore
Face wet from flowing tears
Whimpers exonerated from fallen trees
Quivering knees cause collapse
Wind howls
Hyperventilates
Til the end of all let-outs
But the eye of the storm makes no sound.
