miles – Leaf And Twig

3,000 Miles To Go

departure time draws near
sustenance the only baggage
to pack for the journey

off in the distance
winter is a train loaded with cold
closing the miles between us

gathered wheels
rest and compare
their many many miles

miles of mountains
populated only by trees
as it should be

autumn leaves
illuminated by
the milky way

in every grey day
light is always at work
moving towards a breakthough

All your miles brought you to this empty field.
Doors are flung wide, frozen in time,
your driver and passenger eternally on the run.
