Calm After The Storm

Wrote this for a guy I ultimately gave up on. I won't continue to make a fool of myself. That doesn't discredit the poem's relatability. Tried to make it short and impactful. Does it live up?

My heart, like the ocean,

Angrily smashing water against the sand.

Now, as you walk on my shore

The waves become still, 

Calm, as if there had been no storm before.

I get the picture of long frustration replaced by release. Good imagery tells the story.
