The Storm

The hounds ceased their barking and lay heads to the ground
The sky looks conjuring, no trace of a sound
And we both await, the inevitable fate
For the storm is coming over us, the storm is at our door
The seeds we have sown will never come to bloom
The house that we built won’t turn into home
Our life here as one, will split up in two
The storm will come to take me away, tear me away from you
Before we fall, one last embrace
Before our lives will be erased
One more dance, beneath the trees
Within the shelter of you and me
Will you remember my name?
I’ll throw hamers up to the skies above til it shudders and breaks
I’ll hamer down the clouds until it poors down with rain
So our seeds then will grow, for all that I know
We can overcome the storm, the storm is in our heads
I will clench my fists, and smash this wretched thorn
I’ll mount up my saddle to constrain this gusty storm
I’ll clear the horizon, for you and for me
We can overcome the storm between you and me
