When Will It End? Poem by Melissa L Tamayo

I notice the storm heading our way
The dark gray clouds overlapping
Seems like its taking days
The lightning raises the hairs on my legs
I can’t help but wonder
When it will all end?

The thunder sounds like cries of pain
The water pours down as tears
I can see the sadness, it’s insane
It begins to clear
As I begin to fear
And I question
When will it all end?

The sudden wind begins to blow
The golden yellow rushes over
Feeling painful stings
From each tiny speck of sand
It plasters the windows
Making its way as force in hand
I stand like a statue hoping not to feel the thorns
The temperature drops
Icicles begin to form

I take a deep breath
And cry out loud, I want this no more!
The wind slowly dies
Everything becomes silent
The cries fade
Turning as a tyrant
When will it all go away?
