Her Storm Equates

The sun casts no shadow like her heartache The past moons help, but cannot quite equate She overshadows all the hope allowed Now there is nothing more than this dark cloud Rain comes on through, like her temptations spread She brings a pain, causing me to be dead Like the thunderclaps, words cause a rumble Making me crawl, and to fall and crumble Why must the lightning cause spikes in the air She elicits the same, causing despair The wind blows through, she notes the huge bashes As the waves cross higher, on rocks - crashes The moments the storm comes into my view She causes emotions to foil what’s due Russell Sivey

Very emotional, brings a tear to my eye, hate to see any suffering.

Russell, a stirring sonnet of turbulent emotions of love and commotion depicted with strong and stormy imagery. Great rhymes! An excellent write that I enjoyed this evening.
