Thunder

I didn't understand before
how they can see the wonder in
thunder and lightining.
All I knew then was that they 
frighten me whenever 
lightning strikes
and thunder rumbles.
Instinct forces me to close my eyes
and cover my ears
and loudly count to three
until it all fades away.
I never understood them before
until I watched the lightning
strike and lit up 
a spark in your eyes
with your arms gripping me tight;
while your heart 
rumbles with the sound of thunder,
as it beats fast against mine.
