The Storm Subsides "The Storm"

The Storm

Overwhelming, the storm begins
Dreaming of blood running
Pouring out, flooding
Crying in red rivers

No escape from the storm
Thunderous footsteps of death
Shaking my soul to the core
Knocking me to my knees

Carried away by the storm
Opening my mouth to white hail
Washed down by torrents of tears
Swept away by the furious wind
