Night Drive
We had to stop
Our journey
In the night
And return
To the trapdoor of time
Unfulfilled
And waiting
And all the hidden agendas in the world couldn’t save me
On the night drive
On the faceless road
Where only death is present
Among the moonlit trees
And sleep is all alone
Where every soul wanders absent
And the statues come alive
And every whisper
That I long for
Is left
To die alone
On the night drive
On the night drive
Shadows
Trees
Light
Fear
Breath
Vapor
Moon
Schhhh
Schhhh
The kiss
of sleep
tempting
tempting
The kiss
of sleep
tempting
tempting
Will you meet me there
After forever?
Will you hold me
And comfort me
When the night drive ends?
And only my despair
Remains?
Will you kiss
My lips of grey?
While the shadows and
Silent scarecrows
Conquer my eyes?
As I slowly
Steady
Sleepless
Drown
In the essence of
Life
And fear
Is the only tree left
In this maze?
On the night drive
