Love's Storm

You were the calm before the storm
or maybe I was stuck in the eye
everything looked so beautiful,
did I really have to try?

You flew in like a hurricane
while I was going through winter days
like a tsunami, emotions hit me in waves
and then you left nothing but destruction and pain

Now all I do is avoid mirrors,
because seeing me isn’t healthy
the look in my eyes, says I dread being alive
but, I see success in my future, so I must strive
