Today I woke up to the distant rumbling of thunder-

rolled over and immediately

felt your absence.

 

The power flickered

in time with my racing heart.

 

Clutching the sheets-white knuckled-

my fingers grasped for something,

Anything

to anchor me.

 

The ceiling fractured

and the rain seeped through the hole

in my heart, filling me.

 

Thunder rolled across time and space

echoing throughout my being.
