Love Poem: Natural Disaster

Natural Disaster

natural disaster

lip trembles
an earthquake of a heartbreak
she held on so tight
but she was blinded by the lies
then it all came crashing down

bones shiver
a blizzard colder than his heart
she tried to stay warm
but she was frozen in fate’s path
then the snow piled higher and higher

mouth goes dry
a drought sucking up all hope
she was always optimistic
but she couldn’t take the heat
then it all turned to dust

eyes flood
a rainstorm threatening to drown the fish
she kept her head above the water
but she got caught in the current
then the waves took her under

stomach swirls
a tornado of emotions
she was so strong
but she fell for his charm
then the wind destroyed it all

it’s unavoidable.
