One Small Promise

The world twists under the sky
A thought burns into a smile
More and more the days between.
Freedom was a road
and the hitchhike was stalled
Out in the middle of growing old.
Meandering is such a cool word
Unless it's your life
and your lost or cold.
The feelings spit out of the sun
Warm and driven nails 
Back in all directions
Pulling us toward promise.
