In the Eye of the Storm
Safely dancing in love
A poem
i close my eyes and wish myself elsewhere
until i see only calmness twirling around me
as i look yonder
my life is full of peaceful bliss
but the world around me is destroying everything in sight as it whips around
unleashing its full potential of harmful powers
i don’t see the storm
because i’m in the eye of it
i whisper soothing mantras to myself
as i see the winds dancing with death hundreds of miles away
before my life was in the midst of this eye
i myself was dancing alongside the storm that carried only disturbances
i couldn’t stand still
no matter how fast i ran my heart out toward safety
but then my nightmare melted into a state of dream in which i was dancing in the rain
the rain stopped
and now
here i am
alone in the eye
as i lose track of time and all other senses that just can’t seem to be tamed
