Dropping Your Burdens

The tiredness in my bones

Slowly drained into the dark waters

And the turmoil in my heart

Left nothing but a tinge upon the sky

As the fading light

Held me

Captive.

Rare Moments

As I peer into the dimming sky

At the setting of the sun,

Before the stars appear on high,

Before the day is done,

There is a moment

When the world stands still.
