The unbearable softness of lightning
the caress of shattering light
fear, desire, and beauty
breathing fire
and brittle air
the metal taste of ozone
I sensed what was coming
a primal fear
an omen of doom
of a spirit tightly coiled
eyes peering from the storm
to turn back anger
burn down the words
the cuts too deep
our eyes full of clouds
fire from our hearts
seeking each other's throats
reveling in the ruins
that I can hold once more
the unbearable softness of lightning
fear, desire, and beauty
breathing fire
and brittle air
the metal taste of ozone
I sensed what was coming
a primal fear
an omen of doom
of a spirit tightly coiled
eyes peering from the storm
to turn back anger
burn down the words
the cuts too deep
our eyes full of clouds
fire from our hearts
seeking each other's throats
reveling in the ruins
that I can hold once more
the unbearable softness of lightning
