The Storm In My Heart

24 5 5
                                    

From all the memories stored in my heart

I gather up the ones of you, link them together

Gazing at them projected across the room

I fall asleep with you vivid in my arms


-but you aren't there. I'm reaching, but you're gone again. It's all gone. I scream. Scream so loud for you. And it all crashes.

Time snaps back like a tornado. I don't feel anything but the pain. Don't feel anything as I tear through the room. It's like something else is doing it all. Like some great wind ripping the photos off the walls. Shredding our memories around me.

I'm there, yet not. A spectator to the destruction. Papers fluttering around me. Matching the storm in my heart.

I'm running. Running for you. If I can just get through to the other side then I can find you again. The memories crumple underfoot but my only focus now is breaking through that window. All I want is to open that door back to you.

I'm always reaching for youWhere stories live. Discover now
