Like a gentle wave, you swayed against my ship.
With a gentle breeze, you guided me forward.
As the sun sank into the ocean,
Light quickly turned into an endless night.
Your clouds surrounded my night sky,
Covering all the stars.
You moved as fast as lightening,
Yet roared as loud as thunder.
Your anger, formed as a storm,
Filled the night sky.
Your gentle touch turned into piercing thorns.
You left me on the sand so sore.
As the moon set upon the horizon,
Dawn broke and filled the sky.
You left me on the sandy shore,
Yet I never asked why.
I came, I stayed.
I fought and cried,
And in the end I was left
Shipwrecked.
A Mighty Storm Made From Anger And Betrayal
This helped me get through a rough time, and it described everything so perfectly from the start all the way to the end. Thank you. It truly helped a lot.
