peace: in the eye of the storm

by Lauren Isabella Beamon

 

At first fever flooded my body,

overwhelming me in tidal waves

but then the wind wisped around me roaring ever louder and I naturally rejected

what I thought was another storm.

Then slowly,

your words began to penetrate,

creating the eye.

and I find myself addicted to those crashing waves
