We're driving

Just me and God

It's raining

It's raining hard

The windows

Are steaming up

The bridge

Engulfed by fog



The rest of

The metal bridge

It beckons

It pulls me in

I argue

I scream at God

For what he's offering



My hands fly off the steering wheel

Can't recall getting here

If I could, I would reach behind

And turn my light on

My thoughts run off the beaten track

There's no light

How's the way back

Take the hand of God

And bite the fear

No more lingering



I'm driving

I talk to God

He's screaming

I only nod

I need to

Be where you are

The leaves and trees

Are shaking



It's raining

The bullets melt

The hunger

Of hunger itself

It's straining

The pain has

A reservoir

It keeps for itself



My hands fly off the steering wheel

Can't recall getting here

If I could, I would reach behind

And turn my light on

My thoughts run off the beaten track

There's no light

How's the way back

Take the hand of God

And bite the fear

No more lingering



I'm falling

I'm not myself

I'm diving

I'm underneath

The hull of

A mighty ship

That steams away from here



The bubbles

The surface race

The shining

They replicate

I hear it

The Voice of God

Is laced with sarcasm

In your hands



And my thoughts run off the beaten track

There's no light

How's the way back

Take the hand of God

And bite the fear

No more lingering



My hands fly off the steering wheel

Can't recall getting here

If I could, I would reach behind

And turn my light on
