today i walked outside

outside to the porch

and i looked up

up to the sky

dark purple fading into

lavender just where the

sun had finally set

just one singular star

in the sky that 

will never be black

wind blows through me

i hear the highway

the rushing sounds of

cars and noise all

fading in and out

a train pulls in

the brakes and the

whistle and the noise

i can see it

so clearly in my head 

people getting off

people getting in 

the night wrapping around them

like a light blanket

i see it all

as i stare at

that one star

i'm going up there someday
