Trust, when things aren’t going your way
And life seems to be getting a little tough
Instead of allowing your tempers to flare
Seek better reasons, to get over the rough!
Word of the Day – Trust
FOWC with Fandango – Reason

She is the storm, throughout the night
As thunder roars, and skies turn white
Blissfully wreaks havoc, among the calm
Yes, this is her fire, her soothing balm
Scatters herself, with ice, snow and rain
Eyes of fury, a heart, filled with disdain
No chance to stop this deadly spree
She thrives on it, tis her malady
And just when you think she, at last, subsides
She returns, with an anger, more intensified
Author’s note: Dedicated to the last three Nor’easter’s with number four arriving tomorrow!! Someone, please, make them stop!

Fires flame the midnight sky
Lightning crashes, thunders by
Anger keeps her, at this pace
Feeds her hunger, in this place
Ravenous, the power exceeds
A turbulence, no one does need
Explosive, in her deadly task
Voracious, she unveils her mask
Fire flows from out her hands
Burns the ground, on which she stands
And she feels no heat, as the lava flows
For the night is, forever, in her throes
February Writing Prompt: Volatile Voracity – Day 28/28 Another month has flown by!! Looking forward to Michelle’s challenges for March! 🙂

She dyes her hair, paints her face
Dresses to the nines, awaits his embrace
Lipstick, crimson, as red as blood
Skin so soft, like a flower’s bud
Perfumed wrists, her baubles gleam
She prays this night is not a dream
His ravishing smile, her heart skips a beat
She who stands here, alone, on the street
She wonders aloud, “Will he postpone?”
Minutes, hours, no text on her phone
Realizing she’s being used, like a tool
She hangs her head down, feels like a fool
Gets back in her car, as fast as she can
Never again, will she wait, for a man

Echoing whispers that shatter the night
Watching and waiting, she stands in the light
His voice in the dark, it grows ever stronger
She wonders if she can take this much longer
She strains to listen, hears the sound of her name
From the voice of another, laying the blame
Disbelief comes, as he is walking away
Disavowing that he ever wandered astray
Denying he knows her, his heart is for another
Yet, she is the one he has called his true lover
His lies, so bold, and so easily spoken
His secret, once she, now tattered and broken
