An hour away from home
The lights come on
Standing at the side of the road
I am in awe
Amongst the snow and trees
The freezing cold
I thrive on each sorrowful note
For the moment, all is still
A tranquil pace
The ease of being stranded
In this compassionate place
Amongst the snow and trees
The air is cold and clean
And for the moment, I am at peace

Being able to enjoy a disaster
Is a shame of being so optimistic?
Now that the thrill has worn off
The adventure has lost, it's charm
I just want to go home
ย
Still waiting at the side of the road
The hours have passed, since I last moved
The head down, eyes closed
Into a suspended sleep I fall
Then in sequence, from far to near
Light reflects off of objects before
A sun, of the darkest blues
Rises from the hills behind!
