#hurricanes

may we have some nicer weather please? At least some sunnier days than these! It's been so cold and unbelievably wet, it's horrid enough to get upset. It's a bit like April but in reverse, instead of better it's getting worse. Can't make any plans to go outside for a short walk or bicycle ride. Whenever I get ready to leave the house, heaven looks like I'm in for a douse. Sometimes I go out in spite and realize I'm not watertight. Then I get drenched to the bone, it even destroys my mobile phone. Worse yet after it's been warm, the sky rips open a nasty thunderstorm. That's the part when danger lurks with thunder lightning and the works. Because holding up an umbrella can sometimes torch a poor fella. But wait, before I get into hail, earthly tempests like heavy gale, tornados, hurricanes and the likes. It's definitely not worth it, yikes! Instead of giving myself a permanent frown, I put the kettle on and try piping down.

I am a cemetery And all of your memories engraved With your name, months and date I am all that lavender and daisies Waiting for clouds with heavy rains As you left and ruin me like hurricanes

He was a hurricane. When we met, I dismissed the rain as a pleasant spring shower. Everyone saw the dark clouds, but his eyes were so bright I thought they were the sun After we spoke I fell harder. The wind was pulling me in He was amazing. I thought I was in love. I was a fool to think I could fall for something so destructive. But I guess, at the time, I just thought he was helping the flowers grow instead of ripping them up by their roots. I said yes when I entered the eye of the storm. Everything was so perfect. he was everything I wanted: kind, compassionate, he said I was beautiful. But beauty doesn’t last, everything perfect gets a scratch, and the sun went away as the storm raged on. He was a hurricane. He said he would **** himself when I needed to leave so my anxiety would go back to normal. I never liked the sound of thunder and his voice boomed with every word. he came to school with bandages on his arms and blamed it on me because I had fallen asleep and forgot my phone was on silent. He was a hurricane. I fought for my life and he won. When I got to heaven, she was there. She is heaven. Her eyes hold the secrets of the universe. Her hands fit perfectly in mine and she lead me away from the storm. She says she has been trying since the beginning, but he was like a car crash. I couldn’t stop staring. She is heaven. Her laugh is filled with butterflies and her smile is brighter than any star. She says my name and I melt. I have wanted to see heaven for so long, but I couldn’t begin to fathom the beauty I would see in front of me. I knew about heaven. I knew her energy couldn’t be matched. I knew her happiness was short-lived, when everyone wanted it to be forever. I knew heaven was someone else’s hell. I knew my heaven had been hurt. I knew she had been through hurricanes. But there is so much about heaven I never knew I did not know how blissfully ignorant my wonderful heaven could be. Heaven has a short temper. She’s sassy and sarcastic in the best way. She can hold her own, but sometimes she wants you to hold her because being someone’s heaven is hard. She told me I was her heaven. I was her heaven after so many hurricanes When he finally killed my spirits, she brought them back. He was a hurricane that brought me straight to heaven, and I couldn’t be happier.

not sure if you quite know how much you mean to me maybe you don't and you're oblivious to the hurricane you cause in my brain is that why we are so far apart? or maybe you do perhaps you've seen this hurricane the strange brew of emotions that only appear for you and it scared you away no matter the requital (or lack thereof) you're still the water that fuels my wind my love for you is this hurricane and i've always loved the thrill

Love her like she’s the only girl in the world. Make her your top-most priority. When you’re awake, think of her. When you’re asleep dream of her. Drink in her beauty even if it’s venomous Eat up all her words even if they hurt Breathe in her scent even when she’s stinking. Let the love for her grow on you till your mind is full of her thoughts and your sketch book is full of her portraits. Paint her scars beautifully with vibrant colors. Get her name tattooed on your heart. When she strolls in the darkness, wander along. When she falls down, lie down with her and stare at the night sky. See the world through her eyes Hold her hands when she is cold. Embrace her when she is scared. Kiss her tears when she cries and become the reason behind her smile. Don’t try to plaster her wounds. Don’t try to pull her out of her miseries. Instead, accept her the way she is- scathed and destroyed. Be ready to kiss her good night at 3 a.m. ‘cause tormented souls like her can’t sleep earlier. Pour all her insecurities, sorrows and grieves in a wine glass and gulp them down in one go because that’s all she has to offer you. Emotions are like wine anyway, both get stronger with time. Struggling with the pieces of her, you might lose your sanity. Loving her might be difficult, suffocating and disturbing at times but don’t give up on her so easily. Soon, you’ll know why hurricanes are named after people.

I lay here watching Which layers are spinning... And what direction? My mind dissects the clouds Like a fog being burned by sunlight... During the late morning. This pattern above me Rather pleasing... yet confusing... I'm on the right, I find it yielding left... There's designs I can't name Animals I can make... Yet they all run away as I move And the clouds spin trails... Watching them evolve Like a lifelong time lapse. The drawn up moisture.... The streams of steam condensed... Swirled and forged into cotton-like pillows of uncertainty. The colors are the Indicators of moods The light and mysterious White and normal Green and envious of the oncoming destruction Black and gray depicting ends of sunshine filled days... The life underneath grows, quivers, and in series of decays... Some offer condensed clouds as flavored swirls in mugs... But I rather watch the ones that love Carrying wind and rain... Have swirls of their own and a Name. Though subject of objections The will of nature has a forge... To churn this stream of water around Like spun sugars of cotton candy. Much like a carnival, life is a surprise An unyielding wild ride. Directions are unclear If i will be here I have watched the life of The swirl in this giant mug Smack the coastlines with giant hugs... Some rough love... Though oddity Have you seen what clouds can do When spun around oak trees?

When we scrape our knees as children, our parents taught us to get up and keep a going. See obstacles in life the tornados, hurricanes, and walls, like scratches, cuts, bruises, and sometimes breaks. See them as opportunities to rise up and face the new day. To keep going with optimism, as taught but sometimes forgotten.

Storms of emotions come set off by hurricanes of life. With cyclone winds that are fed by minds ego. They come sometimes out of the blue. Other times I could sense them coming. My protections to weather the storm are... Positive affirmations. Going into heart. Grounding with light. Prayer to Divine. Things happen for a reason. Being eternal That situation shall pass. Wisdom I’m not alone. And I have had MANY category 5 hurricanes in my life. Haven't You?

He doesn't clearly know how to show his affection, it leads to her thoughts that perhaps, he doesn't love her as much as she thought he does. The hurricanes inside of him refuse to open up to the world, the thunder inside wants to be hidden forever, he manages to appear calm, in way she thinks he's careless.

My wrists still hurt on Thursdays. I still remember the way you looked at me. I haven't slept in the past two twenty-four hour periods. I miss the way you ****** me, like I didn't even matter. I knew I didn't matter, but my god, I wanted to matter. CALL IT MENTAL, BUT I SWEAR MY MIND KNOWS MORE ABOUT THE PAIN THAN THE BODY THAT HOLDS IT. I constantly have three pills in my pocket. I'm at work and I have three pills in my pocket. I'm at work and I'm carrying drugs I should not need. One to stop the pain and two to stop the panic. That's still three times the recommended dose. You still give me three times the recommended dose. I still need three times the recommended dose. The trees and the sky, the sky just as blue as your eyes; and you say you don't understand why I wouldn't want to live forever, but how can I not want to die when forever was in your eyes? The trees weep your name and how can I live knowing they're dying just as slow as the respiratory rate of our love? YOU MAKE MY MIND FLIP AND MY STOMACH WHIRL AND THE ONE THING THEY NEVER MENTIONED ABOUT SUICIDE WAS THIS. I haven't slept in the past two twenty-four hour periods. I feel the rusty nail in my back as much as I feel the nail in my coffin. The rusty nail you pushed me against. I am buried alive. The dirt is beginning to smell like home. I drink caffeine to keep me awake. I drink too much caffeine to feel you in my chest. I still don't eat. If you were to touch me, you could feel every inch of my spine. And all this time I thought I was spineless. The only way I know I never loved you was when I tried to say your name, I would say someone else's. IT SOUNDED A LOT LIKE "HELP". If I were to forget you, maybe I could sleep. And then maybe my caffeine heart could take it's final beat.

A torrent gushes from the serpent’s mouth wave upon breaking wave; it’s ALL fake news swiftly eroding what is left to lose. Democracy’s waterlogged corpse drifts south, a bloated mess; all waters to infuse with putrefaction, thus to breed disease uncivil war invades our fantasies; the polarized extremes now pay their dues. Propping things up: it’s what they do the best— business as usual, pawns all occupied in scaffolding facades upon the West and sculpting the friezes of fratricide… but underground, the currents cave away. Media will fail; God brings a brighter day.

water falls burning; rivers boiling; oceans churning; it’s never love that is wrong if we remember how we walked next to hand-carved banisters; we picked them out together; the storm won’t care; the angels said it doesn’t matter but it does; rebuilding a house, it’s not home until our memories decide to join us; can our tears carve a new path so they can make their way to us; can they give thanks to the prayer that saved our souls because all we prayed for was to smile again? a sea song echoing inside of conch shells; enough to risk singing it again alone on a still beach; shadowed by the surge of seabirds fleeing; their wings promising their return as does the melody inside the fear that knows what it has done when I saw you wander in without a thought of the future; it is our humanity crossing borders and oceans that transported the divide we felt when the sky was blue and the tide was tame; and now when it is God that tests us I reach for the love from you that we cannot invent

Dull pattering through agonised woods fumbling winds, serrating storms animals vanishing into the undergrowth scurrying beneath the ground birds huddling under leaves.

All I can see are your bright blue eyes like crystals. Oceans to drown me. All I can hear is your breathing, your chest rising and falling as you sleep next to me. All I can feel is the weight if your arms, holding me tightly through this hurricane. All I can taste is the stale cigarette smoke, my cancerous lungs. All I desire is your soul harmonizing with mine. You ******* You make me want to believe in something bigger than myself.

Ocean Eyes & Hurricanes

All I desire is your soul harmonizing with mine. You ******* You make me want to believe in something bigger than myself.
