Lightning Storm
I was sitting up on my knees
on my bed
in my fourth floor dormroom
I was looking out my window
at the weather
the light rain
the light thunder
the lightning storm
It wouldn't stay dark in my room
the booms of light
kept slicing through
onto my face
into my eyes
And I sat there watching the immenseness
of a single sky
one sky
so much greater than me
that i felt like i was standing
I looked down to the pavement below
seeing the cars
and the street lights
I almost grasped our tiny world
But I heard my roomate's key in the door
and knowing endings
I tried to grab hold of my thoughts
A sweet storm to remember
