Why Do I Fly
Location
Why do I fly down the streets at night,
past it’s sun shining, bright twinkling lights,
venue after venue, only to dilute the feelings that I have inside for you
not realizing that I am only pulling myself farther from you.
Why do I fly so I high
smoke, blunt after blunt, splifing my brain out
only to numb the overwhelming feeling that has been provoked inside of me.
Knowing that I can’t have you next to me.
Why do I fly down the streets at night,
Arms spread free, as the wheels spin under me;
traveling so fast as to capture and escape deaths reality,
my only wish to have your touch on my chest on those sleepless nights—
as I try to turn words, rhythm and rhyme into poetry.
Why do I fly through life—
pushing past the moments that I know you are only outside of my grasp.
Not realizing that the present moments, are actually the ones that will bring you to me.
I have this feeling without you as I fly through the night,
it only wishes that I come as so close to death,
to experience an emotion that overwhelms your absence.
