thunder echoes within the hollowness
reverberating through empty chambers
a heart of stone
battered and bruised
unable to weather the storm
flooding through its cracked foundation
searching within yields no refuge
from an onslaught of emotions
looking up only reveals pieces collapsed
eyes stinging while being pelted by the rain
the damp cold loneliness
swallowing oneself
in a blanket of pain and defeat
while sighed breaths condense in the dark
