Early morning road trip
7 a.m.
We got in the car,
And began the journey,
Let's go for a drive.
The moon was still hanging in the sky,
And the light was grey
And there was nobody on the road
Nobody but us two alone
Is everyone still asleep?
I could only hear the engine's routine
Outside everything was mute
The world was motionless,
But the car was going on
There was no one
Not even birds in the sky
Houses and fields were empty
Is everyone dead?
The road was indefinitely straight
We couldn't see the end of it
Litlle by little, a fog appeared
It swallowed the world around us
All was blank through the window
Are we the ones who died?
The fog was dense
The car was slowly climbing a hill
I felt cold and heavy
We didn't know where we were going anymore
Time seemed to stop
But we finally reach the summit
And suddenly the sky was clear
There wasn't mist any longer
Our destination appeared
The sunlight brouht everything to life again
I couldn't believe my eyes
It was like a magic act
Like we were in paradise.
Whenever things are obscure and confusing,
Please, keep going.
