My Storm



The raging winds of anxiety and fear, the pounding thunder in my head.
The torrential rain pouring from my eyes that floods my soul and soaks my bed.
The turbulent and unpredictable waves of anger that are spinning me into a cyclone of rage.
The intense hormonal hurricane that gets more relentless with age.
The lightning that strikes without warning, leaving my body in immense and overwhelming pain.
Fighting this storm, seems hopelessly in vain.
