Storm of the Century

the cold breeze blows through the night air

harsh, biter, the winds create a tundra

i begin to freeze, from the inside out

my blood, my saliva, the individual cells in my flesh

my heart becomes a crystal palace

the frozen fortress of solitude

an inpenetrable tower of ice

it is from here that i survey the damage

the brutal storm wreaked devestation upon the broad horizon

what once floruished is a frost covered wasteland

where once there was life and love

there is nothing but pain and sorrow

they call it the storm of the century

but this storm is no blizzard

no, this storm is me
