Stormchaser

There's something else circling overhead now
 A different kind of creature
 Bigger
 Out in the distance
 I'm following
 Watching
 And I find myself again
 Underneath churning winds that draw me in
 Inside
 A microcosm forms as emotions imitate the clouds
 Twisting themselves into a rope
 Knotted at my heart and anchored in the manic horizon
 Let's free ourselves from this stagnant mess for a while
 I've grown so tired of the same damn crises
 Let's leave a trail of debris in our wake
 we'll watch the birth of catastrophes
 Nightly
 I need to be a part of this wild machine
 I don't care where it takes me
 Or if I make it out alive
 I'm going to chase it til it breaks me
 Not giving up until I get inside
 I can feel the electricity being pulled from the sky
 into the eye of this storm
 And spit back out with a violent force
 Terrifying with its indiscriminate reach
 echoing in my bones
 Thrilling me to my very core
 It cracks open time
 And all the pressure in a moment is released
 The sound of it pounds the earth
 Then throbs through the ground
 I live this life always running to keep up
 with the wind following
 Driving forward
 Or in front of me
 Pushing back
 Sometimes
 I'm moving so fast
 As if weightless
 other times
 It feels as if my body's being dragged
 I'm racing my hopes along the veins of the country
 It's so hard not to fall behind
 I bury a drop of my blood beneath the soil of each city
 So that I can return and find myself
 Even if there's nothing else left
