ever strong
when all alone
i crave you
but when you are there
i just need myself
less than ideal
you say
solace in hiding
a million miles away
dare you i do
to direct me one road
a fork where
i will take neither
quite the collection of moments
of feeling blue
disappear at the edge of the world
leave me cold
the shiver i know
this survival spawns growth
rather huddle
blankets clutched
where no one can seek
the highway hums
rocks the tires so gently
a conscious sleep
to not miss a moment of the rain
steady trickles dancing on
metal
