Today


Today
The Radio reminded me of how lonely I am
So, I opted for road noise instead
I Prayed
To fight fervent feelings for only a man
Who paved a highway inside my head

Caught in
A daydream as my car carelessly swerves
Peaceful pastures speed by unseen
Forgotten
Destination on winding, hilly curves
Frivolous burning of gasoline

Today
I'm thankful for a serene swim in the clouds
Cool, clean reflections of past mistakes
I've Prayed
Repeatedly through anxiety shrouds
Emotions exposed in glass lakes

Forgotten
Conversations meant to manipulate
Road noise that's easily dismissed
Caught in
A wave of guilt that only dissipates
When his perception starts to drift

Today
I can see him more clearly than before
But the Radio plays the same
I Pray
For a peaceful new road forevermore
A clean swim to erase the shame
