This storm inside of me



We fall asleep with the T.V. on.
Sounds exploding from all around the room.
I hear only my thoughts.
I see only you.

Your slow steady breathes put me to sleep.
Inhale. Your warm skin pressed against me.
Exhale. I get lost in thought. I get lost in you.
Alone. But Alone together.

An ice cold breeze shook me awake.
Raindrops. Quick hard ones, fighting their way to the ground.
Racing fast. Just like the heartbeat I felt. 
Within me, from you.

We wake up to the sound of rain.
This storm couldn't outstorm this one inside of me.
I pretend to be asleep, but you know I'm awake.
When I get up from this bed, what happens next?
