My Sun Setting In The Sky

***

Driving into the setting sun
Life on automatic pilot
Momentum pulling under
Dark stormy seas
No stars above
Guiding the way
There is no one

Missing what was key
I lift the chalice
Eyes black as coal
The world screams
I can't hear
Impermanent passing dream
The light inside
Still shines
Flesh and blood
Passing on
Floating by
My sun setting in the sky

The way things are going I might end up a Buddhist. Now not only can I not find myself, I can't find anyone else either.  I close ...
