Roggy’s Note: I think this would make for a beautiful song. Can’t you just hear the melody in your head as you read on?

babyshoes321:

“Afraid Of Thunder; I traced my name through the lines of a time when I was young
Looked back the way I came, shut my eyes and away from the sun
Shadows danced among the trees, and the gentle breeze
tugged me forward toward the distance
I took a step away from home, oh I know, the rain will wash away my footprints

Oh, I wrote this for you.
In case you ever wondered, what happened to me
Can’t you see, I’m just afraid of the thunder

I have to go where the skies are blue, and the water is clean
I hope you can come too, I can show you, things you’ve never seen

Let me lay my head beneath the current, and wash away the mistakes I’ve made
Take a breath and close my eyes, drift today, to a new place.
I found myself awake, with dogs in the distance tracking me down
There’s nothing left to say. I can’t explain, why I ever left town.

Oh, I wrote this for you.
In case you ever wondered, what happened to me
Can’t you see, I’m afraid of the thunder.

Just afraid of the thunder.”
