Calm after storm

Author: Manahil Shahnawaz

You gush love into the darkness of the night

Until it sparkles

The stars

You can see them more clearly

When it is dark enough

The more tormentous tempestuous the time

The more they twinkle

The more raging the waters

Coughs pearls 2 shore

The more climactic

The calm after the war
