Storm
Tonight the darkness holds the land
And living things hide safe within -
I stand out in the wind and rain
While storm tossed clouds seethe overhead
And lightning burns across the sky
Thunder crashing like ocean waves
Breaking hard on an unseen shore
The Lord of Storms rides out tonight
His horse running on the wild wind
Cloak tearing at the rain soaked air
His eye flashing bright as lightning
I stand and watch him rushing by
Wind and rain whipping through my soul
Then I'm left alone in the dark
As the echoing hoofbeats fade
Waiting for one more flash of light
Waiting for the returning storm
