During the quietest of moments come the loudest of thoughts.
They latch on and suddenly the calm becomes the most unexpected storm.
Thoughts, feelings and memories come crashing to the forefront.
They have been blown in from years before and plan to stay for the months ahead.
Unrelenting and with the tightest of grips, it feels as though nothing will be as it was before.
The thunder rattles through my mind whilst the lightning shows me flashes of my life before.
I enter into the storm, waiting for it to settle and hoping to make it to the other side.
The journey is treacherous, it takes every ounce from me and I can do nothing but falter.
Every step I take and every path I follow I find myself deeper into the storm.
It feels as though it is never ending, I can find no way out and no release.
When I am ready to give into my fate the heaviness finally breaks and I am able to stand.
The moment I have been waiting for has arrived and I suddenly feel a mix of fear and excitement.
I never want to be back here again, but the wind chases me everywhere.
Each time the storm descends I am paralysed with fear, never knowing if this is the last I will face.
