I was that storm
that swept through last night
upended your world
unearthing all that was
in my gusting
I ruffled your hair
while riffling unabashedly
the tendrils of your soul
I whirled away
seedlinged doubt
dispersed dusted bunnies
of languishing ennui
I blasted past defenses
left you breathless
quiescent and wasted
in a balmy kind of calm
I poured upon your pores
running rivulets
between your lies
and universal truths
in my deluge
I quenched your thirst
while dousing in perpetuity
all your raging fires
I swirled away
careworn etchings
washed out ill-used notions
of staid propriety
I swamped status quo
left you gasping
engulfed and drifting
in the waves of my wake
Wow, this poem was absolutely brilliant! I loved every word of it.

It’s like all breezy in the beginning. Then you stab me in the end. I love the emotional roller coaster.
