Lighting Strikes
Raindrops are hitting me like bullets to the brain
I loved this weather, when we were together
But today it brings nothing but pain

Her arms are around me…
Around my neck.
Her hugs are affectionate
Yet dripping with poison

I fall in her arms
Despite my unconscious alarms
I’m entranced by her scent
Quite out of my mind

Tomorrow she’ll have a new victim to bind.
