Thunder in your heart
The thunder in your heart
is who you are,
The lightning is a rage
you cannot tame.
Your soul was adrift;
drifted next to mine,
But how can we be one
if not the same?
You were born a lone wolf
running free,
Always meant to be
out in the wild.
You were drawn into
the aura of my youth,
Thought I had the wonder
of a child.
The storm inside your head
would not subside,
I could never catch you
in the rain.
Caged your fleeing heart;
remained worlds apart,
I now release the wolf
I could not tame.

I love the use of nature imagery and metaphor in the poem, I always feel like that is something that works in a love poem and definitely is working here. Xx
