Nature's Fury

A glittering shadow swallows the bay
Sparkling lights shine brighter than the mist
It’s almost night to longer day
The bay dares not to exist
The storm that comes is bursting with power
It blows all living out to sea
Lightning keeps getting stronger
It has the force to bring death closer
The howling tune echoes through the bay
The crackling ground starts to break
Far beneath the solid earth
Let everything dissemble
Close all solid iron gates
Destroy each and every path
Leave it to its fate
Don’t ever look back!!
