When a powerful love runs its course, heartbreak pulls no punches.
you hit like a cloudburst
a thunderstorm of love
kisses hot as lightning
striking from above
your tempest pulled no punches
I was swept up in its force
but now the winds have died
this storm has run its course
my thoughts are chilled and cloudy
my eyes are steady rain
my heart’s caught in a cold front
bad weather’s bringing pain
warm winds may return
perhaps so clear blue skies
but my heart will ever yearn
t’see that sunburst in your eyes
