Its especially cold out tonight
i can feel the black top ,
tar stricken road through my jacket , the raised yellow lines in the center of my back
and above my head a million stars dancing towards the heavens
but none of them beacon me
cars pass in the distance
all too far for comfort
each time i seem to breathe in
only to feel disappointed at catching air yet again
and from the corner of my mind
i hear the small voice
of a boy ,i knew once
a boy i knew in tunnels and swing sets
but the voice falls and fades
into someone elses thoughts
im right back here
my legs laced with unwillingness
my heart wrapped in other's lives
pebbles nestled snugly in my spine
and finally in the distance
the still ,small view of
headlights
