Hurricane

Nature's prison binds us true
Bunkered down in concrete walls
That close us from the outside world
Outside stands guard the howling winds
That break and snap anything that goes venture
Forever not wind that keeps us caged
Rather the Sky's tears that floods the earth
That earth outside marking us free people
As the hours pass and our sentence weakens
And when we see the end
Swing the door open to see and behold
How the world outside changed and endured
Those left within the debris
Are left to pick the pieces
Rebuild back their once known hope and dreams
From a desolate and destroyed world
But know this and listen well
If you can hear or see my words
And your heart still ever beatin
And the ones around still breathe
Smile and know that your love
Your thoughts of safety
Has allowed you to see a new world
And be able to tell the tales
To the future to come
That you against the odds are alive and well.
