A Flash of Lightning
I see a flash of lightning piercing through the darkness Amidst the heavy rains pouring like the tears from the heavens As it storms, the cold unforgiving night gets darker The voice of the rain even louder As I pass through the ominous grey woods I hear the howling of the wolves from a distance Like a warning call to depart home I feel these tears from the high above, flowing through my arms and veins And shivering winds wrapping firm my soul But I still walk past the menacing blue forest As I still follow, a flash of lighting piercing through the darkness The brash thunder and the predators howling, play as music to my ears The night gets ever colder, with the shivering darkness surrounding my soul I still walk ahead towards a flash of lighting in the darkness The rains still pouring, wolves howling and the cold night frightening I stare at my soul, I see the darkness, but there is a flash of lightning, calling me for my quest. - Roopesh Kumar
