The Tornado

 Written 3/15/2025

As the storm rolls through

Thunder shakes the skies

Lightening radiating its beauty

I try and find you 

Sounds of rage approaching

Trees swaying

Pellets of rain beating down

Listening for a calmness

Only to hear more anger

From the world around

Swirling winds come hollowing in

Dirt and debris being picked up

Being thrown

Sirens blaring 

Needing to find safety

To discover I can not 

My heart begins to ache

Screams for you

You are nowhere to be found

Winds picking up more

Sounds of the raging storm comes closer

Getting stronger

Sirens getting louder and longer

Trying to find your hand 

Can’t find it

Wanting to scream out for you

Calling your name

The storm slows 

The wind goes quiet

Rain slows

The sirens stop

Finally I get to hear you

Calling my name

I grab your hand

Hold on tight

Tears sting my eyes

As my body begins to calm

Hearing you

I know I am alright
