Ions charging through the soul
Heart quickening it's pace
Towards impending ecstasy
I turn my flushing face

Skin tingling with the tension
Heart so loudly pounds
No longer can I hear
The thunder as it sounds

Suddenly the storm erupts
The rain comes rushing down
Heart skips a beat, then slows
No thunder sounds to drown

Rain transforms to gentle mist
Heart beat begins to slow
Refreshed, I turn my face
To the peace of the afterglow
