BEFORE A STORM

Clouds gather,

Dark and foreboding,

A tumultuous today.



Melancholia,

Looms above,

Very few agree with me.



Why not wait,

For nature to strike,

And cleanse all this pollution.



I look calm,

Just like the harsh storm,

Waiting to lash at the city.



Who is there,

To prevent us both,

Who wants to be sincere?
