Cower In My Bed

By emily2u | From the Heart | 6 Nov 2021

The sky is angry
With deafening thunder,
And flashing lighting
As the rain pours.

Non-stop for five hours
The cry goes on and on,
Like there's no tomorrow
Perhaps there really isn't.

I am rolled up in bed
Under the sheets,
Listening to the agony
Fearful of the howling wind.

The slashing rain ferocious
Bangs against my windows
Searching me out, calling
As I cower deeper in my bed.
