Storms, tear apart lands
Like a tyrant, they murder
Destroying all hope

Our journey took us, far away, to the sea
Twilight had settled, on the captain and me
Moon lighted the way, though we saw not ahead
The billowing clouds, that meant imminent dread
The sky was laced, with pinks and blues
Our sails, like bellows, held the wind, as it blew
We traveled through waters, so calm and serene
Merely ripples of waves, such a peaceful scene
But the darkness grew closer, as we sailed, on and on
Never again to been seen, in the light of the dawn

She struck with a fervor, like a derailed train
Took with her, everything, all she could claim
Lashed out at those, for staying behind
Wondering if they had all lost their mind
Warnings aplenty, where this girl would land
Seems she had it quite carefully planned
Landfall would only cause her to stall
So she stayed upon water, embracing the wall
Of funnel spouts spewing, and wind shears galore
Something so ominous, what was in store?!
Slowly she churned, growing closer and then
Slamming into the mainland, again and again
Unleashing her peril, with all of her might
Keeping everyone fearful, throughout most the night
Until all was calm, not a sound could be heard
Caught in the eye of the storm, where chaos is stirred

You were electrically charged
Swift bolts of jagged edges
Held up by clouds, but you,
You couldn’t be contained
Too powerful to be harnessed
Too fiery to be claimed
As the gods of thunder roared
And the battle pursued
You fought til the end
Quietly making your way
Across the blackened skies

The skies open up, above me
Their sorrows, releasing the pain
A cloudburst, quite uncontrollably
Soon mingles, with the pouring rain
