A Yorkshire Poet Poet Free verse

Bright Lights, Hidden Realities

Bright lights, long nights, passing dreams
Bright lights, zooming by, hidden screams

Long road, dual code, highway streams
Faint light becomes brilliant bright, rolling machines

See you behind the lights moving by vehicular means
Pass by, glint of an eye, are we simply human machines!

Travelling speed but in an instant so close we nearly meet
Lives mean separate things. 
Eyes scream, our souls bare, our demons seen

At journey start, long way apart but then suddenly!!
Within feet we are - the glimpse of who and what we are
Blink of an eye, miles go by, faces met from different realities

Journeys end, why pretend?

But, I remember the face I have seen

Miles apart, different streets, hearts tuned to different beats 

Chance encounter, without words spoken, but there was a communication then broken!
Chance luck, never stuck, face seen

What does it mean?

For an instant I saw into your dream
For an instant I saw past this reality

Bright lights drew me, your eyes threw me
Moon light fooled me.....Instantly

What does it mean?

Do some connections burn too deep?

Do silent connections speak in some insane reality?
