I’m sure the wind will teach me.

Response
It’s hard to rise above
when you’re drowning in others’ eyes
your soul turns black
when jaded by deception
I miss the easy days
when I was fascinated by the word “bittersweet”
so many circumstances seemd to fit in adolescence
Now I’m drawn in by “technicolor”
If I buy five I can take two today
and three tomorrow
Better yet I can get ten now
eat three for a couple days
and have four on the third.
I love riding waves of gravity on the back roads.
I’m sure the wind will teach me
exactly what’s electric
while it carries away my passing thoughts
But for now it’s only birds for me
and butterflies for you
until we’re through
And with this water rising
I hope you know which ride to take.
