The night sky enveloped our surroundings
Eating away the outside world
With a clang of metal
And a chug of smoke
We’re sent onto a new path
A new future
Full of what?
We’re not quite sure.
For just like the distant trees that get swooped up into the darkened night
Our home before and the knowledge of what’s to come get swooped up along with it
The unknown lurks
It’s precedence looming above us
Whether it be misfortune or something grander,
it’s impossible to tell
But the option for something better
Even just a little
Well it’s worth the wild ride
Looking out the window
I see those I left behind
home, Family, friends, prized possessions
All gone, lost in the darkened night
But in the end
while the unknown can be an incredible cruel mistress
she can also oh so very kind
And her taste of hope of something grander,
Well there’s simply nothing more divine
