The Storm
The Storm
Whistling Wind
Pounding Rain
Flashing Lightening
The Storm
The power goes off
You sit very still
A siren blares
Downstairs you run
Whistling wind
Pounding Rain
Flashing Lightening
The Storm
Huddling in a corner
In your windowless room
You listen, waiting
For the storm to end
Whistling wind
Pounding rain
Flashing Lightening
The storm
A crash
From over you
Water falls on top of you
And the noise keeps coming
Whistling wind
Pounding rain
Flashing lightening
The storm
The flashing stops
The siren ends
Everything is quiet
So very quiet
You stand up
And start up the stairs
Out into the open air
To see what the storm left behind
Whistling wind
Pounding rain
Flashing lightening
The Storm
