where I begin

I wish I could drive further and faster away,

running through the memories I’ve made,

and the ones with my name.

it’s true what they say,

you never know what people have been through

unless they show you the way.

there is so much life that I’ve paid

in exchange,

for the lessons i’ve learned here today.

and I feel them brushing my face

when I do the most mundane.

when I feel the most sane.

at my happiest, it’s true.

I never forget about you.

and if I didn’t know better…

but damn it - I do.
