Quiet Storm

Wandering in the wilderness last night
Clouds of doom overcast my thoughts
The sky of my mind became darker
Wind of change whipped my brain

My pulse and heart galloped so fast
Pressure almost cracked my rib cage
My mind woke from its hypnotized slumber
Wishing it were in a different time zone

I could see the adrenaline rush to my heels
Still my feet could not help me run
Sweat shot out my pores
Like a jet stream from an angry geyser

Fear eroded the landscape of my nerves
Fury blocked the pathway to my spirit
Life’s high current tossed me in mid air
Gravity wasted no time to drop me

I stumbled into a cave that beckoned to me
Only the music was there when I went in
I was unsure of who turned on the jukebox
But I know the tunes massaged my spirit

A bright light shone from the heavens
And welcomed me to my destined path
My heart and lungs then spoke words
My mind could not comprehend

I fell on my knees and lifted my face to the sky
There was the rainbow adorning the clouds
Chills of exaltation melted the pain
Mental phantoms vanished
