Coming In Like a Storm

She will come into your life
Like a beautiful disaster
And will leave with that smile
Still on her face. She will not
Lose the battle against
The storm. She will face it head on.
She does not need your help
To defeat it. She just needs
Someone to be as rough
As she can be. She is used
To being reckless and
Hard to love. She is used to
People leaving and being broken.
She is so used to being alone.
Do not challenge her and what
She is feeling. She knows
Herself better than you ever will.
It is like standing close to
A burning flame. She will be
Out of fuel and gas
Before you will ever get
A chance to know the real her.
She is never used to
Being beautiful. She is used
To being imperfect and guarded.
She is just a storm
Waiting to happen.
