The Most Perfect Storm

She flooded my heart…

She was a blizzard of thought
whirling, whipping,
howling in her ears
shaking my foundation
begging me to let her in

I loved watching her
unleash her wrath
I could see it brewing
in her billowy system
trying to stand strong
against the current of fear

She was made of billions
of twinkling pieces
each one, a reason why I loved her
All precious and pure
like falling snow
but each one
became icy and cold in her fury

She was a blustery storm
raging all through the day and night

But we weathered the storm together
Her gusting winds slowed to faint whispers
and we examined her confusion
in the wake of this predictable storm

Waves of emotion surged in her eyes
like oceans crashing over the shore
She flooded my heart
with the turmoil she created
and this made me love her
even more than before

Everything calmed
Her breathing slowed
Heart warmed
as we lie there together
Her light blanketed over me
Beautiful and bright

The chaos settled
and so did her eyes
I watched and admired
how a storm so ferocious
can produce such peace
