POEM STARTER

After The Storm

Using any form of poetry, write about an emotion as if it were a storm.

A storm is coming

Ever look back at the day The anger Sadness Frustration It’s piling up in your head Like a heavy storm Clouding your mind Fogging your thoughts Until all the walls your holding up Come pouring down In the rain. At first your drenched Regret Annoyance But than you look up All you see are dark clouds Shaped as faces The thunder crackles It’s the sound of your voice Screaming Shouting Lightning pierces the sky The world is lit up But only for a second Everything becomes clear But than it gets dark again And your left Retracing your steps The water beneath your feet It’s rising Threatening to drown you Wash you away Until you’re lost The sound of thunder comes again It shakes the ground Your foundation Until the water trembles And your knees wobble You fall to the ground Covered in rain Drenched in loathing Coughing for air Your hands shake As they slowly move up Desperate Wanting Someone to save you.
