“I’ve had enough pain for a lifetime.”
She’ll hurt again,
no doubt,
but maybe she won’t go looking for it this time.
She was the storm chaser
proving her strength
to none but herself.
“The bigger, the badder, the better.”
Now she relates more to soldiers
than she could to anyone intact.
Flashbacks abound,
she’s what you might call a damaged girl.
Maybe it’s low self worth;
maybe she’s stubborn as hell;
maybe she only feels her power
when she’s at war.
“Oh fuckity ****
She’s so broken now;
she’s so sad now;
she’s so afraid now.
“I think I’m broken now.”
Who broke this storm chaser?
It’s a feat to scare the fearless;
it’s a talent to break the strong.
You should be proud of yourself:
you’re a special kind of *******
if “you broke the storm chaser.”
