Hollow Scene

Beginning tunes bring me back

Opening lines, remind

Looking up, grey sky

Tree, yellow leaves, swaying in the wild wind

Lift me up, the sun peeks through

Song creates moments,

the moments I feel most me

Here

His voice, so serene, holds me tightly,

give me hope, life me up

Arms open in surrender

Standing at the stop light, blinking,

at the edge, above the ice and

in the street’s silence and white blankets,

My thoughts emptied and mind filled with home

My epoch has begun,

lift me up.
