The storm within her face,

and the rain upon her eyes

Cloud-covered confusion crossing her thoughts

unexpected, unrelentless anger rages waves

throughout a weakened, sleepless body.

Helpless to the blackened sky around her,

collapsing into a tired, helpless heap.

The eye of the storm glistens with her tears.
