Wandering In The Dark
I focus on the bare trees dancing in the wind
As it battles the cruel power cables above and grins
The vast darkness surrounds me-
with a few blinks of light,
As I wander under the luminous glow of the lights
filled with life.
The brisk, cold wind whispers to me,
As it floats around to it's own melody:
It says "Things will get better, but for now hold on",
"You can do this" It says, "You are strong".
Our conversation comes to a close
And it carries on making music for the trees to flow to.
The tree branches wave goodbye,
As I carry on wandering into the darkness of the night.
