i'm out here on a dark night

under a dark sky

with a billion stars

spilled across it

laying in the back of my truck

nestled among the pillows

looking up

and usually at night

i sit out here and

tell the stars everything

spilling it all

rambling

explaining

as if they don't know

my heart

how i failed at

what mattered

the most to me

but tonight...

tonight

i may be alone

but i'm out here with

the universe

all Creation

and for tonight

i'm enough

i'm the way i am

by design

and as I watch the meteors

streak across the sky

i know it's just a fleeting glimpse

but it is so worth it

life is short

our days are numbered

age is irrelevant

in His plan

and i'm not going to

take anything

for granted.

β€œThe heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament shows His handiwork. Day unto day utters speech, and night unto night reveals knowledge. There is no speech nor language where their voice is not heard. Their line has gone out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the world. In them He has set a tabernacle for the sun,” Psalms‬ ‭19‬:‭1‬-‭4‬ ‭NKJV
