Tempestuous Night

.                     The air is so humid
                 As the storm rages outside
               And I toss and turn in my bed
                       Sleep evading me
Lightning traces, visible on the inside of my eyelids,
     Illuminate your image and brighten my mind
               How I long for your cool touch
                        On my damp skin
                   As the rain beats heavy
                         Sweet, hard rain
                   To feed the needy earth
