As lightning strikes
And the clouds are heavy
I stand there awaiting the downpour
Ready to take the weight
Anchoring me to the rumbling earth
Ready to give birth
To that awful finality
Overtaking all that exists
Nothing is settled
The impending rush of simply What Is
All that I can do is wait
And scream the voice welling up inside of me
Alone on the vibrating sand
As tears roll down my cheeks
The rain joins my efforts
And it feels as if the world is echoing My Heart.
