Rain Song

This song brings chills to my body
the first thing that brings calm
during a moment of chaos.

Consistent, even before I know
what it is I want
or what to ask for.

I love the way this song feels,
the lightning before the storm
in June.

A light, streaking through the dark,
sensual & wet in infatuation
before the rumble of anticipation.

Your words are a tender caress
in the eye of the storm
the concept of two opposing things
blending as one in unison.

An inspiration to wreak as much havoc
as humanly possible.

My heart left with nowhere to run,
even before I know what I want
or what it is that I need.

My calm in the storm
before anything begins to take form.

Before the lightning snakes & turns
before the thunder
claps & collapses
like a million buildings
hitting the ground.

There was you.
