I heard the loud clap of thunder and saw the flash of lightening.
The sky opened up and the windows shook.
You took my breath away, then left me gasping for air.
You held me close, but yet kept me at arms length.
I want to tell you my secrets from deep within.
But once I blink my eyes will you be gone?
It will be like the silence after a storm.
My breath will not return.

I heard the loud clap of thunder and saw the flash of lightening.
The sky opened up and the windows shook.
You took my breath away, then left me gasping for air.
You held me close, but yet kept me at arms length.
I want to tell you my secrets from deep within.
But once I blink my eyes will you be gone?
It will be like the silence after a storm.
My breath will not return.
