The Passenger
I woke up wondering where I was
In my dream I had been driving somewhere
Here there everywhere trying to get home
I thought I saw it down the street that street
Turned down that street only to find
It didn’t look like the right one
The end looked too cluttered too busy
I was going down the wrong street
Looked like the right one
So where am I
The sun shone but I was in the dark
I was a man but my child was lost
I could see then but I can’t see now
Then I asked for directions
And my darkness shed its skin
When my passenger pointed the way
