Storm’s End
Language: English
And the storm raged across the bliss field As the moments of time captured the wind And bent it, pretending it wouldn’t matter The sky burned with daytime And overpowered the night As the birds flew higher Almost out of sight The quiet lingered in the wake Of the struggle ended When the pain had gone away And the child stood With tears in his eyes In love with the day And the wind that won In love with the fire Of the sun
