Lightning Love Poem by Jackie Trujillo

like the lightning hitting the ground you bring life to a dying heart,
you bring the hope and will to live,
if we don’t know pain, we don’t know happiness
the one’s before you made me feel the pain,
but you bring me joy, an unknown emotion.
When I was around you, you made my heart beat faster
it woke up around you. My heart healed because of you
Then you did what I feared most, you left me
and my heart stopped beating. Broken again the pain immense.
The love I thought eternal gone in a flash
like the lightning I thought would bring me endless joy your gone
