The Train, The Lights, The All Above.

Stop,
Turn around,
Look,
and actually open those bright eyes of yours to the existing life you never knew,
Have you ever just sat there, ears drained with the heavy sound of silence?
Ever just cocked your head a little to the left to watch the second hand on the clock turn with grace?
Now pinch your eyes shut,
are you lost in the cavernous black and blues, splotted with the red and the stars?

[I really liked this beginning, but i'm not sure at all how to kind of close it. I wanted this to be one of those short poems, the ones leaving you with questions. S.O.S!]
