Tsunami
A great wall of sorrow
Engulfing all in its path,
Rising from the earthquake of pain
Deep below the surface
A surface normally calm,
Broken only on occasion by
The rough seas of discontent
And the great storms of rage
Fueled by the high winds of stress
At last the great wave breaks,
Leaving naught but a swath of regret
In its massive wake.

Leaving naught but a swath of regret
