Traveling down a black-topped road
to anywhere
Towering evergreens line this road
Flashing across my windshield as I speed to
somewhere, anywhere but nowhere
The moon is my guide
I am drawn to her like a moth
on dusty fragile wings, I travel
weightless as the wind,
I’m leaving
leaving behind where I’ve been
Moving toward…
Towards what? Something new? Something
good? Somewhere good?
Who will care anyway? I’m leaving
Heading to who knows what in who knows where
The moon leads me
anywhere is better than here
