Storm (Opening Poem) Lyrics

First there was silence

Deafening and horrid

A chorus of noise heard only by those

Who have already lost themselves to it

What started as a drizzle

And a Small gust of wind

Would soon turn into a storm

Catching me and destroying my shelter forcing

Me to expose that which I had locked away

A fear

A fear I had kept hidden is now

Rampant and on display

I try desperately to hold onto this fear

I feel myself being pulled to the ozone

Panicked I am frozen

Ragdolling and lifeless

Helpless to the storm

My limbs flailing and

My body battered with scattered debris

Rattled by thunder

Oh how i'd wished now I'd cut my hair

If just to keep it from my eyes now

Oh now how I wanted to be inside

And It's when flying helplessly

I most wished to be on the ground

But for a moment

In the weightless chaos

I found comfort

A beautiful destruction

A fall of glee that ends in pain

Perhaps this is how I should have been all along

Still my eyes see the ground

And I am too conscious of my roles

To allow the winds to keep me

I reach out for any grip I could

And when I finally feel the grasp

A stability regaining in my body

My feet connecting again to the

Ground

I returned to the debris that was

My home

And though I mourne what I have lost

I have no choice But to begin to rebuild
