Pain & Lightning Are The Same Poem by Skye Figueroa

Pain & Lightning Are The Same

Rating: 3.0


Pain is like heat lightning.
Just like a flash of white over the treetops,
on the faraway horizon.

A dull pain on the fringes of the sky.
Again and again it throbs - without a sound.

Some might long for a thunderstorm.

I like, especially the last line and good use of imagery. We have different views on our associations with lighting and thunderstorms though i.e. in my poem 'Hurricane Darrin'

I liked how you used the comparison of lightening with pain: as you described it so well in your poem. Spiritsong
