Drenched by the Tears you cry, But unable to stop the flow, I tried to remember The light that fell from Your eyes… Once upon a time… How can this ache That rattles like thunder Through your heart, Be salved by the promise Of rainbows Or memories of sunshine? I can not turn back the Roiling clouds, or Blow away the storms That roll through The empty plains Of your soul. I can only offer The shelter of my arms, As temporary relief From tornadic emotions And sleepless nights Spent waiting alone. |

I like the way you represented the comfort of friendship through the metaphor of weather. Nicely portrayed. -MVS "If you think you know it all, you have a lot to learn." |

A lovely feeling, affectionate, caring poem of love and its ups and downs. You caring for the one that life has hurt and offering your arms as a place of warmth to hide and find the sunshine of a new day. Nice read, great work. Rick |
