Abysmal Thunder



Abysmal Thunder

When sadness says you’re mine to keep, resist to weep
Days of wine and roses; soda, pretzels and beer
Songs that make you remember and bring nostalgia cheer
Before the angel of love’s death appeared

His devious shadow just out of view
Relishing your laughter as he began to cast his curse on you
Crashing your chemicals and melting emotion’s glue
Now wreckage is all about and nothing seems true

Temptation to surrender all that’s sublime is easy
Self-pity is an addiction warm and sleazy
And like all who frequent that speak easy, it ends in a hangover of depression
Fracturing your mind and raising belief you don’t deserve happiness’ ambition

But you’re humanity with choices to usurp inevitability
Not at the beginning or the end, but in between it is viability
To move is life, to fight and resist makes you your life’s knight
So slay the evil angel and fly brave Cupid’s flight
