Calm Before the Storm

Just let it fall

The rain behind the clouds in my eyes

The thunderstorm brewing in my ears

The hurricane in my mind

Just say my name and quiet the storms

Still the snowfall down the hollow of my throat, the tornadoes down my spine

Sing a lullaby and pull my earthquake eyelids to sleep

Strum your fingers down my icy lakes and tsunami lips

Stroke your hand through my lava hair and reduce it to ash

Catch my meteor hands and let them wander

Douse the fire licking up my legs, and destroy my planetary body

Pull my tsunami lips to yours and shatter the rain from behind my eyes

Set off the thunderstorm in my ears

Call the hurricane inside my mind,

and release the snowfall from the hollow of my throat

Spin the tornados down the shiver of my spine

And wake my earthquake eyelids from their slumber

Tickle your fingers up my roaring waters and ocean lips

Pull my lava hair and light it on fire

Just let my meteor hands wander

Align my planetary body,

ignite the fire burning a path along my legs

Say my name and free the storms that only speak for you.
