Storm

Thunder rumbling across the sky

Echoing my thoughts, sad and dark

Feeling lonely, without tears I cry

Life is bleary, seeming so stark

Give me a hug, give me your warmth

Hold me tight and never let me go

The moment shall pass, and no harm

Shall befall me, under your shadow

Skies open up, stormwater pours

Forces from all sides pulling me apart

I deal with them, I will fight of course

But I cant fight alone, I’ve done my part

My last reserve of strength is gone

Is it weak to give up? Is it fine

To want that shoulder to lean on

Those fingers to curl around mine

Will you take me down the road of life

Walking beside me, hand-in-hand?

Turn me away from sadness, from strife

Lead me, come with me, to that blessed land…
