To the light, I draw nearer

And draw a comfort in closeness

In reaching my destination.

I am tired and have grown weary

Of this journey and wish to

Satisfy my thirst and rest my

Exhausted body, succumbing to

A deep slumber.

As the end is in sight,

I visualise the road behind me

With flickering stops beside it

Like pensive punctuation marks.

I am reminded of times gone by

And know that all is Past

And my future is nothing.

It is time to sleep.
