More Than You Can See [Poems]

c o a s t e r

the shadows always gloom near by
even when the sun shines
the dark must abide
it drives me crazy
i know what's at stake
i am aware
but nevertheless i get struck speechless
no one can ever prepare you for this
the highs and lows
the calm before the storm
the thunder before the rain
and suddenly the rainbow after the monsoon
everything washes away
like a cleanse
rinse and repeat
that's what it feels
