Secrets Don't Keep

I feel the thunder as it rolls
up through my legs to my fingertips—
pulling me, unleashing me.
The rain melts its way down my back—
heavier, heavier.  Fall.
Crash! Crack!
Spit up the storm inside and
fill the room with rage.
The grey fog tumbles over chairs and books
pinching its way into crevasses
until you drown in it;
a burden no longer my own.
The storm is upon; best grab an umbrella.
