I exist in time
trapped in my mind
within a concrete cage
wings unable to spread
Staring out my window
lost inside my memories
your sun's bright light
burning in my heart
In that other world
where you protected me
nothing has any meaning
the moon doesn't exist
Our universe is empty
all stars burned out
dark is my night
looking for your lighthouse

Steve Burkett 1-2-16

I have no idea how far this tunnel goes. I've been in it a long time, and it's dark in here. I once saw a light, as if a lighthouse in the distance, but even that is fading away now.
