Another Hurricane

In the eye of a hurricane

There is quiet

For just a moment

A yellow sky

In another world, another time

I connect those words to mine

Another hurricane from years gone by

A day that flipped my life

Even in the crash, I couldn't seem to die

I wrote my way out

Wrote everything down from what I had seen

I wrote remembrance of what happened to me

Years passed again

Bringing death of someone I loved and mourning began

I went back to my pen

In the eye of my hurricane,

I look at what could be my legacy

I look at the cautionary tale

Of writing until it fails

Because who knows what would happen to me

If my writing becomes my downfall instead of protecting me

{Song- Hurricane, from Hamilton by Lin Manuel Miranda}
