Winds Like a Hurricane By Eric Beals

Great winds like a hurricane, rush into my heart I try to move forward, but I end back at the start I try to move forward, but the storm reigns high For I know your weakness, an eye for an eye Great winds like a hurricane, my heart has gone cold Your winds whisper into my ear as you try to pass by One day you vanish, without any knowledge of where or why I wish you farewell, for your core will now die Great winds like a hurricane, figurative but real Winds like a hurricane, for it describes how I feel Winds like a hurricane, rushing fast to die Winds like a hurricane, my emotions will rise Oh great winds, I call to you, not a word in the sky Let your whisper ring in my ears as I lie down to cry Emotionally unstable, yet I still refuse to try Great winds like a hurricane, the ‘I’ will now fly Great winds like a hurricane, your whispers I keep Great winds like a hurricane, nature you will reap I wish you farewell, for your core will now die For I know your weakness, which is now mine
