There is a storm outside

There is a storm outside,

with the thunder crashing and the lightning flashing.

There is a storm outside,

with the people running and the street lights blinking.

There is a storm outside,

where the traffic conditions worsen; impatient drivers honk and honk.

Nothing of these actions of course, can stop the storm outside.

The storm outside does not get any better,

there are power cuts and people start complaining about the indoor heat.

 But hey, would you have rather been in the storm outside?

People scream when they see lightning, 

People scream when they have no lights.

Ironic, but that is the way of life...

 

There is a storm outside,

I sit inside wondering what the world outside feels like.

There is a storm outside,

I sit inside knowing that I am safe and knowing that the storm outside would eventually subside.
