Lightning In A Twilight Hour

Slow Motion Spirits

A lonely calm

Presides

A suitcase by

Her side

A stillness to

Break hearts

This is where her life starts

 

Almost twilight

A breath away

From twilight

The day may be ending

But it's the beginning

Of her life

Of her life

 

Anticipation

Fills the passing minutes

The air alive

With slow motion spirits

She thinks by now

They'll see she's gone

Running to

Not running from

Not running from

 

Almost twilight

A breath away

From twilight

The day may be ending

But it's the beginning

Of her life

Of her life

 

A checkered skirt

A ponytail

Distant water

Low lying clouds

A deserted road

Curves out of sight

Almost twilight
