Ode To the Lost and Right

These are the moments that
Make you or
Break you
This is the life of the seen
Into the fire, but out of the sun
Stuck out of reach, or between

Skies that grow darker in
Passing while
Wishing
That you're not so far behind
Deep undercover, but lit center stage
Feeling too free, yet confined

Go through the motions that
Whisper it's
Colder
No one is dressed for the chill
Freezing in apathy, falsely perceived
All of the ride, but no thrill

Mistaken moments of
Right words and
Songbirds
Lighting the path of the norm
Doesn't quite shine for you, dull in the dust
Summer made sin, and not warm
