Drops Of Thunderstorm Poem by Kelly Boutin

Shadows time throws at us
to keep us in the dark
waiting for forever
lightening the ship
trying to escape it;
drops of thunderstorm.

I see that one falling there,
how soon 'till it falls on me?
how soon 'till I cannot bear?
'till I fall to my knees?

Drops of thunderstorm weigh me down,
where I can I escape where they won't follow?
Drops of thunderstorm tear me down
as I wait for my tomorrow.

Oh, empty drops of thunderclouds
take my crown away
as 'Princess of China'
for forever plays.

Drops of thunderstorm,
how long will it be
before the storm breaks
and rains down on me?

Drops of thunderstorm,
how long can I wait
as the raindrops fall
and slowly torment me
with drops of thunderstorm.
