So when you feel sad
you take a hit,
a puff of sweet acrid wind
to blow you away
across the dark expanse of the day.
You leave me deep in the shadows
while you float above it all
like a blimp
sailing over industrial grime.
What escapes me
is simply this:
you have me,
you have my hand
and I have wings
that can carry us both
because i don't need
medication.
I have something more
potent than that.
Even when I forget;
it's still there.
The hope that blinds
my pupils
like an
Aztec sun.
Come back down
and we'll run bare foot
across this town,
but i can't race someone
that isn't here.
