Poem: Wide Open Spaces

WIDE OPEN SPACES

Sound.
Open me up
Wide.

Sound.
See Inside this hollow shell.

Silence.
Ebb and Flows.

Steps beginning to awake me.
Inward and out.

Sound.
Fear and cold.

On the surface
I track a voice.
 

A red moon rises,
A black sun sets…

All that I needed.

Shift away,
Broken into pieces

Silence
Deaf to the surrounding crash

Darkness
In this light.

Sound.
Now, locked forever in this maze.

(On the path to greatness)

A horizon shattered,
Two nights scattered.

It burns with love,
The world gone gray.

Sound.

Ever.
Onward.
Fallen.
Sky.

A satellite set
To transmit life’s ambience.
