After The Storm...A Collab w/Cocoa8007

 

The damage was visible

Destruction

at every turn

Seems with every clap of thunder

there was a new lesson to learn

Stray words spewed,

striking as lightning

illuminating angry souls

as the winds of change

un apologetically blew secrets of tomorrows

from being told

 

Hold on to your rainbow

....

it gets better after the storm

 

The relentless eye of the storm

approaching

Maybe it is bringing a break

in the chaos

and despair

 

Time is slowly shifting

towards peace

and a feeling of calm in the air

 

Hold on to your rainbow

....

it gets better after the storm

 

Although the blemishes

cannot be erased

there is still the ability to heal

Love can be still be made

to love  again

Friends can be friends again

with the ability to forgive

 

Rain comes not to destroy,

but to replenish life

New experiences

New friendships

New dreams to conquer

 

Hold on to your rainbow

....

it gets better after the storm
