June 28th

Standing still,

summoned by fear.

Dark dandy-lions stand as shadows in the sky.

And I am still alone.

Bright Milky Way star’s illuminate the sky like New York City lights.

And I am still alone.

The refreshing summer breeze sweeps my backside

And I was still alone.

Something crunches in the leaves behind me.
A slow figure coming my way.
My heart b-e-a-t-s
My hands sweat.

I am no longer alone.
