Dream for Today
City lights dissolve in the rear-view grey,
I keep the window down so the dawn can say
every mile that bruised us was a verse we needed—
I sing them soft, like secrets undefeated.
No map, just a heartbeat drumming the wheel,
your laughter flickers, vinyl skipping on steel.
We trade tomorrow for a sky unbroken,
two silhouettes where the first word’s spoken.
Hold the horizon in a coffee-cup ray,
today’s the dream we’ll dream along the way.
