I stand in midnight blue, facing the Green Light,
that sheds its glow, over coffee colored waves.
In a whisper, I ask, the lone Green Light,
"How to fill the void, of all lost hope?"In silence it listens, unlike those days,
when it murmured in my ears,
to keep moving -
"Follow that brown-eyed girl" or "build the house of cards of your dreams,"
"Climb that mossy hill" and "Take that bend in the road."
In my slumber I saw, the Green Light's wink,
and I let it in, through my barred window.
But tonight, it's stopped, without telling me to stop,
and I look around, to see the missed sign to "stop."Holding my breath, I stared at the sky,
like I had done, when the moon was last blue.
Tonight, it's dark; The stars clocked out.
the moon seems marooned,
In a cloudy obscurity.
Still and quiet, with unmarked gloom,
the sky spreads out, a vacant vastness.
The void in my heart, shrinks screaming,
I feel the world stretch, to Himalayan height.In the blink of an eye, I find myself dwarfed
to the tiniest man to have ever walked the earth.- Amanda Lopez 🥀-
