Children in the Storm (Free verse) by thepinkbunnyofdoom
A little boy, sitting in a window seal, on a rainy afternoon
Droplets of the sadness he feels, striking at the glass
Huddled in a blanket to shield against the cold
He watches the fury of the storm and wonders, why
Why are the heavens angry, and whether or not its tears will ever stop
A little girl, buried under blankets, lying on her bed
Stifles the screams of terrors, at every thunderstrike
Emerged in shadows and comfort she is frightened
Clutching tight to her glass eyed sleeping companion
Praying to someone for a savior, from the chaos that is this storm
He smiles at the sky and gently whispers it'll be alright
There, there, cry some more and let it all out
Scream at the top of your lungs and make the world shake
I feel that way sometimes too, let it all out
You'll feel alot better
She breaks into tears and sobs upwards
Stop your scaring me, what did I do to you?
All I wanted was to smile, and kiss you on the lips
But you scream at me across the heavens
I can't take this anymore
His hand reaches for the phone
Her hand follows suit
He remembers her last words to him
She remembers the sting of his
Both hands pull back
Let the heavens rage as they may
Let the sun burn bright, and clouds rein fierce
If we are to be buried by volume, nothing can save us
We choose our paths, now is not the time to change our minds
So let me drift where ever the might of this storm takes me
