Country Roads

Reduced simplicity

Houses in silhouette

The authority of light

Until its enemy

The darkness comes

Fragile realities

now reliant on other senses

What remains?

Everything

Take it in

Touch the darkness

Drag your fingers through it like dry sand

Feel the breeze of it on still cheeks

Smell it

Hear it

Dream it

Until dawn
