No, no:

 

I fear the howling winds no longer,

The cracking trees soothe my soul.

 

When the waves crash onto shore,

I don't pray for them to stop.

 

I'm grateful something protects you from my mind.

Restlessly resting on my pillow,

Night after sleepless night.

 

Screaming at the top of my lungs,

My skull rattling.
