"Life of the Stormy Mind"

Life of the Stormy Mind by Melissa Coffman

Life inside her mind
was like being blown in
the wind never knowing
if she'd be going up or down.

She lived for the sun
but was swallowed by the
rain more often than not,

slogging through the puddles
of her life barefoot as though
the light would never find her again.

The highs and lows roiling
like thunderstorms around her
brokenness always made the
rays that much brighter when
she found her way out of the clouds,

catching the sunbeams
like daydreams
she dreamt of a
life free from the downpour.

Post YOUR poetry here!  I'd love to read it!
