red lights flow forward, dragging my feet.
white lights chase me, pulling at my eyes.
cool air in my lungs, clear thoughts fill my mind,
sending chills through my skin.
everything that has escaped my grasp,
becomes apparent in this moment,
the night sky mirrors my shaken image.
the changes have left me searching,
the familiarities have left me entirely.
i'm turning over a dead leaf,
and leaving a wrecked train behind me,
wresting in our footprints
here i stand with the sun at my back,
chasing my shadow ...
stumble, but never stop.
