Twilight

A belly full of sunrises

I lift myself heavy off the floor

My legs overflowing with full moon dancing

I try to carry these squirming

Kicking

Tomorrows

To a world so desperately in need

Of hope

The weeks turned to years

I carry through so much spinning

The only constant

Is me

The world paints itself grey

Not in sadness

But in sameness 

No longer enamored 

By the sweet feeling 

Of tomorrow’s foot resting

On my rib

The fog hugs the weight of me

Hiding the horizon from view

Where shall I plant these tomorrows?

I turn my eyes to the womb that surrounds me

Endless space

Eternal starlight

Where shall I lay the dawn to rise?
