Storm

Here I drift feeling alone again
Away from everyone and everything
As thunder claps and lightning strikes
Another storm of thoughts begins.
With everything a downpour
Confusion in the haze
Make my mind a maze.
On the brink of loneliness
Too tired to cry out.
The fears of standing alone
Entwined with guilt and doubt.
But it always comes full circle
At the end I just think of you.
Remembering good times
I hope this storm will lift
And we can see this through
Will friendship endure?
Clouded thoughts hollow
Waiting for it to subside
Emptiness raining down on me
Such cold numbness inside.
Blistering light flashes down
Leaving dark thoughts to burn
There's always hope for a better tomorrow
And I'm waiting for good times to return.
