rainy friday

rain drops fall and break on the windshield
the sky is nothing more than dull in gray
"blue in green" is on the radio
and man it just feels like tears

it lay down

the deer lies on death's highway
Bleeding
clinging to nothing
look at those eyes
Hollow
two black pools
infinite pools of nothing
a body bent
Destroyed
brand new playground for decay
it's sad out on death's highway
time to get off
there's the exit
Gone

the search

Summer rain and fog on the streets
Nighttime rolls smooth

We let our souls wander
Bodies planted firmly

Watching the rain fall from basement windows

I'm left dreaming
Searching for something in the stars

Streetlights are not answers
But they light my way home

How cold it has grown in an hour

I'm here and I yearn for more

Looking up, there's still just
Nothing
