the moon smiled a radiant bright and full
nevertheless the blinding darkness - infinite
hidden clouds seen by the possibility of it,
revealing dots of stars, piercing the night

speed and highs accelarated on triple lanes,
marking dangerous territorial screeches,
departing from remorses of a careful escape,
ignorantly abandoning the bliss of negligence

on the road, my heart charges with time
with each passing trees, we all learn
gathering classic experience from the hills
a ritualistic awakening of the being, epoch-making

it was at that self-definitive moment
after so many years beating the hard, black road,
watching acid rain and the sun burning the journey, that
the pain left without a warn and i was not equipped

(this one's for road less travelled)
