Inexorably

The clouds converging in
As she battles the wind,
Trying to forge her own way.
Blithe Cupid from above
Just requires love
To turn the bleak night into day.
But she is too willful,
And it’s incredible
How she can just close her eyes
And let those tear-rimmed lids
Become a makeshift disguise.

Get drenched in the flood
Of tears, sweat, and blood--
A toxic waste unto the land.
She won’t give a damn!
Says, “It’s who I am,”
Condensing the pain into one hand.

She smiles like lightning:
So swift it is fright’ning.
Just as quickly, it will fade.
The thunder from her heart
Can tear the world apart--
Those were the feelings he made.
Emotions in a swirl
Engulf this jaded girl,
Blocking the path to reason.
Giving insanity
Just enough room for treason.

Get drenched in the flood
Of tears, sweat, and blood--
A toxic waste unto the land.
She no longer cares,
She just wants him there
To relieve the pain with his warm hand.

Even if it takes years,
The sky will run out of tears...

Inexorably.
