After the Storm Has Passed

After the storm has passed,
  when the shutters are lifted,
The damage surveyed,
  our fortunes re-sifted...
When the clouds move away,
  and the ocean stops churning,
When the fires are put out,
  but our hearts are still burning...
Will I still love you,
  will I know who you are?
Will you still be there waiting,
  when I’ve run so far?
 
After the storm has passed,
  and the flood gates lie open,
An echo remains,
  of things better unspoken.
When the sun returns,
  to brighten the day,
Will it sting my eyes,
  will I turn away?
Am I still the same person
  you loved long ago,
Should we fight for each other,
  is it time to let go?
 
After the storm has passed,
  and our belongings lie scattered,
Will I still be so sure,
  of the things I thought mattered?
All the things that I loved in you,
  amongst many things I have lost.
I guard my heart from you,
  but at what cost?
I wanted to hurt you,
  to make you care.
But now the storm has passed,
  and you’re not there.
