The storm outside was no match to the one in me.

It’s pouring dark and stormy outside
As I stare into the darkness of the day
I feel it creeping inside of me
the storm of emotions, raw and real

I have fought the rising tide of love
The longing to be held, consoled, and loved
Is it the starkness of the pain
The loss of the one so dear to me

Am I succumbing under the weight of agony and torment
that I cannot endure any more
The tide has run against me for a while
Do I fight and survive?
Or give up and surrender to the heartless ways of time

The merciless waves of life usher me to subside
Treading on the path of grief, anguish, and distress
Is that my destiny I ask with tears I shed

Or will I find the one who holds my hand
in the darkness and leads me to light
