The storm blazes through the windows,
Droplets of rain touch the surface
Of the chair in which I sit, filled with sorrow.
But it isn't every day the heavens fall out of grace,
Nor is it often that I mirror thy frowning face.
And for once, I long for the ever promise of contentment
But is then met with the wickedness of abandonment.
So, is it possible to wallow in one's self-pity
When faced with their own monstrosity?
Oh, am I no longer wearing the mask of Mighty Achilles?
Or may it be that my poor soul has greeted Lord Hades?
Has it finally succumbed to the loud dark storm
Which soaks every bit of emotion and squeezes far, oh, begone?
The tragedy struck as my mysticism reached its dramatic end,
Devoid of any joy that Euphrosyne may have mercifully sent.

- Comment from author about the poem: I wrote this after a rather huge argument with my Mum. There was a storm outside as I wrote and reflected on the fight. This poem just struck me when I needed it to. I couldn't talk to my Mother for I was afraid I would be too driven by my emotion, so I just wrote this as a homage to my anger.
