The weather is getting colder
As the rain is falling down
And I can the destruction coming
Although I cannot turn around
For I am paralyzed my legs like
Battered roots stuck in the ground.
I can hear the thunder roar
And the lightning blinds my eyes
I can since the monster coming
Although I dare not close my eyes
The lightning strikes and the rain assaults
But I do not blame the storm
For it is monsters fault.
Again and again She attacks me
Leaving nothing to defend
And my body is thrown to the
Ground once again
The next I hear is silence for
Nothing makes a sound
And I begin to feel the
Warmth and power
Flowing from the ground.
I reach down deep
finding the strength to
Struggle to my feet
As I notice the rain washing
Mud and blood from me
The ground is getting warmer
And my skin begins to glow
And I can feel this unknown
Strength coming from my soul.
Could it be Mother Earth
trying to make this broken
heart again feel whole.
As I breath in deep and clear my mind
I find confidence
I didn’t think I could find.
I never knew how much
I wanted To be alive
Until I was struggling to survive
As I turn to face the monster,
Who’s been around for years
I pull the strength I
Found so very near and
I notice why I’m feeling so much fear.
I can see my childhood reflection as if
It were a holographic projection
Always trying to reach
Perfect perfection
Not understanding
That perfection can
Become an Obsession.
