I had a dream,
and you were in it.
Things had never changed
between you and me.
I am always dreaming of you.
I saw you,
stunned.
There you were,
feelings upon feelings
came up.
Experiencing them all at once,
all I could do was cry.
I walked away
because I’m good at that.
I felt angry now, but maybe at myself
I needed to breathe.
I start to run
I don’t want to be around you
Not anyone
No buildings, no people
no sadness
only loneliness.
There it was
maybe it was a symbol
of our relationship
roaring loudly
destroying anything in its path.
Twirling and whirling
I couldn’t scream
only mesmerized
I gazed out in wonder
in what I was seeing
before I knew it
it came for me
to **** me
to silence me
to destroy me
I ran back to you
I yelled for you to run
I wanted a safe place
that place was you.
we held hands
as we ran.
It felt good
to feel you.
I wanted eternity
but only had seconds.
We had to hide.
Finding shelter
not always easy
but it was as if God
was there and gave
us what we needed
at the right place at the right time
we found a safe place
we always did.
I couldn’t even find
the words to say
or maybe I don’t remember
but there was an overwhelming
amount of power
that stung between us.
You asked what I was thinking
we became connected
for the first time
kissing you was different
not a kiss I’ve ever experienced.
People call it passion
it was most definitely
like floating in the atmosphere
nothing mattered anymore
no fear was felt
just you and I
finally free to live
to love
and nothing could
never stop it.
not even a tornado.
