Rivers

Alone, my heart flutters
my face falls, the buildings are too tall
they block out my sun, they take away my fun
forgetful decisions and confusing options
depressing individuals
if you can even...
nevermind,...exactly...
besides...

The wind blows cool air in my face
this food leaves me with bad taste
the dirt is swept into my eyes
my friends are giving me high fives
I have to do it alone, though
I take a deep breath of cool air
sweet smog, sweet smog

He's asleep
like a log, like a log
I get taken advantage of
I've made damage too

I yell these words at the top of my lungs
I take out my compass and search for the sun
I quiet my step and deepen my breath
I cancel and delete
I fall on my feet
I stand on a street
devoid of any ground

  1. I really like this. I can connect to this in such a way that I feel it kind of describes me. I think anyone could relate to it because its so broad, yet anyone could grasp it where they can relate. Its intense yet laid back. I love it.
