The sky brightens as lightning streaks across in forks.
The sky explodes as the sound of thunder erupts.
the Rain beats against the side of the house.
As I watch from the basement window.

I scream in fear as the sky lights up,
Looking like the whole sky will burst,
From a power surge.
I close my eyes so I don't see anymore.

I listen to the soothing sound of the rain.
I open my window a smidge.
And let the rain wash over my face.
It feels so good.

I shudder as the thunder booms,
Feeling it pass through my body.
My ears hurt from the constant explosions.
I wish they never go away.

Even though they scare me to death.
I love them even more.
For they are so soothing to fall asleep to.
And the morning after are always peaceful.
