2am Diversions
Driving through a ghost town
Darkness hanging quietly
Above the star lit clouds
Sleep held at bay
By caffeine and brain consolidation
Wind’s gentle humming causing trees to sway
Headed to an anywhere destination
With a mind wide open
And a heart not opposed to hoping
Goodnight, dear dreamer
I’ll wake you when we get there
Wherever “there” might be
