Leave your worries behind you
The roads unwind, so should your mind
The air is heavy with the scent of fresh flowers and midnight dew
Just breathe in and let the fresh oxygen heal you
Tires gripping asphalt half past two in the morning
Drizzles and drips turn to rain, now it's pouring
Drive us deeper into the backcountry
Soon to forget the horrors we've all seen
Take my head another mile into the middle of nowhere
We'll be safe if for only a minute we forgot our cares
It feels like hours now since we passed the city limits sign
Deer gallop in the fields of untended rye
Don't lie to yourself and say you don't want to be that free
I can see you're craving this just as much as me
Inspired by my love of long, quiet car rides. This next poem is a bit short, but expresses my desires of freedom. Freedom from responsibilities, monotony, and even my own emotions.
Raise your hand if you like late night drives away from the city lights and noise like I do.

Hollow Mind
PoetryI'm struggling to feel more than numb, They say that time is supposed to heal you but look what it has done. If pain is a void, then I'm completely hollow and undone. Just some random asorted poetry, nothing more than a means of self expression.
