Twister...

 

 

Life and love are like a tornado

glorious, magnificent, destructive

a force of nature uncontrolled

wreaking havoc to those unsuspecting

Unaware of what’s to bear down…

My continual turmoil

flung around, a rag doll hanging by threads

thrown into a vortex of emotions

unable to decipher which direction

while damaging paths are created…

My core shattered

enduring deep painful inflictions

destroying my ability to adore another

nearly transparent of feelings

until  dust and debris are lifted…

My soul torn apart

developing a rapid downward spiral of confusion

swallowing me, a state of disarray

engulfed in a continuous deafening rumble

while the freight train advances to my doom…

My mind obstructed

warning me, a violent powerful storm to come

feeling no wind or air caress my skin, all is still

I pay no heed to any caution for sanctuary

thus trailing the edge of my delicate life barely protected…

 In a deep depression, covering my head with my hands and arms

refusing to see, hear and scream no evil

hoping to elude the anger, deflect the flying spilth

I see danger, stare at its dark greenish eyes with courage

able to stand fierce against it’s swinging fists,  bruising me…

I survived my deviant distorted Twister of Love

by luck or by destiny, no matter now

favorable conditions allowed me to endure, persist

un-relinquishing my true strength and stability

against the spawning ominous black dragon…

Sunlit skies, a warm summer breeze filled with peace

surround me, calmness and happiness

appreciative, fortunes continue to bestow me

my heart, soul and mind harmoniously playing, same tune...

Life is like a tornado

glorious, magnificent, powerful

a force of nature uncontrolled

bestowing opportunity to those suspecting

Aware of what could be…
