The Calm and the Storm

Once this is over we’ll get back to play.

We’ll do it ‘till the end of the day.

And tomorrow a Storm will

Come around and 

It will take 

the sun

Away

And once that is over we’ll sit in the shade

Under a tree, eating all the delicious treats that we made.

Then 

lightning 

will 

come

and

strike 

the 

Tree

and

all

of 

our 

joy

will

Fade

And once that is over and we’re safe in our home,

we’ll all be together like we were never ever alone.

And then you’ll get a call on the phone…

But after some time we’ll be back to bliss.

Not thinking of all the people we miss.

But once it’s all over, there'll be no tree.

It’ll be over completely.

No lightning, no cupcakes, or place to play.

Our struggles, no longer based upon the day.

No me for you, nor you for me.

We’ll be subject to the rest of eternity.
