She was powerless
standing in the face of the storm
so she simply surrendered
watched it roll on in
& loved him till it passed
Louise Alexandra Erskine
you & I
two of the darkest thunder clouds to find their way together
feeding of each others pain
energy filled particles colliding
there was always going to be one hell of a storm
but
my God the lightening we made was spectacular
Louise Alexandra Erskine
The thunder may never have hurt anyone
but beware
the lightning that follows burns like hell
Louise Alexandra Erskine
Sipping whisky in the moonlight with him
calming the storm in her
Louise Alexandra Erskine
There are two ways to survive a storm
batten down the hatches, remain beneath it
and wait for it to pass in its own time
or
rise above it where the skies are clear
Louise Alexandra Erskine
I didn’t see it at the time
I was too lost inside the storm
but you were my lighthouse
illuminating those thundering skies
shining
keeping me safe
&
leading me home
Louise Alexandra Erskine
