watching the storm again

[harraser]

Last time there was a storm like this
I spent the whole night wishing
That I was watching the lightning with you,
Wishing we were in our imaginary hammock
In the imaginary backyard of our imaginary house
Just laying together and watching the light
Dancing and playing in the sky.
Well tonight the lightnings back
And just like last time Im alone.
But this time Im happy,
Watching a light show thats just for me.
A stray thought crosses my mind
I wonder if youre watching the storm too
and I hope youre enjoying it as much as I am
Enjoying watching the lights alone.
Ive finally realised that I dont need you,
I can be happy on my own.
If I had the chance Id still choose to be with you.
But it would be a choice
Not a compulsion.
Ive found completeness on my own
And now Im able to share it if I choose.
I wish you well finding your own completeness
So you dont need someone else to be happy
And so a simple storm
Can make your night a joy
Even if theres noone to watch it with you.
Good luck, and maybe one day
We'll get to watch a storm together,
Two independent beings,
Complete but choosing not to be alone.

[up all night]

I sat up on my balconey to watch those storms. They're a perfect time for reflection I think and I wish i could've watched them with your sense of happiness!
This poem was really uplifting because it's exactly how i'd love to feel.
Thank you!

Nice!
Last time I got to enjoy the show... Then had a scare when my friends care nearly lost control while driving through the storm...
This time I was at work so couldn't enjoy it fully...
