Desert Reflection

I understand the extent
of my contradictions
And reconciliation is
why I am here.
A purposeful life is
the reason for being,
Under the sun we can’t
hide from our fears.

Walk so my steps fall silent,

Breathe so my lungs feel power,

Fragmented thoughts fall away,

Without moments of self-reflection.

Silhouette

12:24 A.M.

I can’t sleep during
A thunderstorm; I’m afraid
I might miss something.


Hail

Lightning is the sun,
Breaking through the clouds to help
Guide those who are lost.


Silhouette

So much can be seen
By searching the silhouette
of a moonless sky.


9:41 P.M.

Highway reflectors
Pass by my tired eyes like
Twilight fireflies.
