The Storm

By angelunderneath

Thunder crashes above you
Sometimes in a slow low growl
Then in a loud boom that makes you scream
You're confined, consumed by fear
When will it come again...

Lightening flashes before you
Bringing light into pitch darkness
Ever returning to blissful darkness again
You're entranced, hypnotized
By the electricity in the air

The rain pours down over your body
Like a thousand fingers carressing
Your shivering naked flesh
You have relaxed, buried yourself
Into your own world

Wind thrashing around you, on you
A sharp sting or a gentle tingle
Either one designed to tease
You're tortured, tantilized
Waiting for the next thrashing

Lay back and let it have it's way with you
Consuming, entrancing, tantilizing
Pleasing you
Bringing you to heights you have never known
Time and time again, under the cover of night...

...As the clouds part...
The full moon shines down upon you
And you wait..........
For the storm to come again

    Starting out I got a sense of paranoia..that oh so common fear of a loud boom that comes generally when its cold,windy(maybe),dark,rainy,maybe some hail..hey thats why this is Dark Poetry,,for some the absent sunshine is so haunting..that all this combined..a storm ..can be so frightning"Like a thousand fingers caressing"..that is a very sennsory image.touch...this part is like the solitary feeling and peace of mind when bare..nude in the calming rain..the next thrashing.excellent..getting off of the sen sensations..",under the cover of night..."..indeed so enticing..the darkness consuming..this is very sensual..I really like this stimulating journey of how one reacts in the storm..the powerful encompassing feeling of this natural beast..Thanks for the share..this definately very hot and inviting..
