My storm
I was taught to look to the sky so I can understand tomorrow.
I was never taught to look at myself.
I can tell a storm is coming by the amount of iron in the sky,
The pink hue means something.
I was never taught the signs to know the storm inside my mind.
Or, what to do when I can't make the sun rise.
I was connected to the earth but, I never connected myself... to myself
I developed a personality but, never knew what it meant.
I created a sense of humor but, didn't know why.
I decided to be strong so I could protect myself.
I never knew I would be my greatest natural disaster.
I never knew I could know myself better,
I'm learning, I'm learning what my feelings are.
I'm learning all of my "why's".
I want to be able to know my own eyes the same way I know my own sky.
I will learn what it means to be me
