Storm

In the mirror I saw you
In your familiar pose
Never mine but never
Needed you to be
And yet, I can't shake it
Can't fake it anymore
Cause there's a storm coming
Looming outside my window

Right when you left
Quiet but I could tell
Lightning doesn't strike twice
So you never came back
You were a miracle
Never fully realized
That's what made it right

You belonged so much to the Earth
That I can still hear
The footsteps of your birth
Nothing would stop you
Like the storm torrents
You are relentless
As you march in my room
And out
