A Thunderous Life

A Thunderous Life


Burrow out  the deepest sea
Throw me in
Drop in a piece of the sun
Boil me asunder
Take my bones to the highest peak
Bury them under a heap

The thunderous persist
The rain continue to exist
Lightening increase its strikes
Ripping open my very hype
Birds feasted on my glow
Under a colorless rainbow

So, burrow out the deepest sea
Throw me in
Drop in a piece of the sun
Boil me  asunder
Take my bones to the highest peak
Bury them under a heap

Because the thunderous persist
The rain continue to exist
Lightening increase its strikes
Ripping open my very hype
Birds feasted on my glow
Under a colorless rainbow
