Once again, 7 years later, Im faced with these Lights. The music changed but the mood still the same. I relax. Head tilted up I watch these Street Lights whistle a tune by my memories. Strange  people, the car an anomaly from times known, but this feeling... Still so much the same. No curve this time, no speed limit; like we cared then or now. Instead of school tomorrow it's a job, instead of teachers it's higher ups. Regardless. I ask myself the same question now as I did then, "Can we make it?"

Street Light, A Sequel.
Once again, 7 years later, Im faced with these Lights. The music changed but the mood still the same. I relax. Head tilted up I watch these Street Lights whistle a tune by my memories. Strange  people, the car an anomaly from times known, but this feeling... Still so much the same. No curve this time, no speed limit; like we cared then or now. Instead of school tomorrow it's a job, instead of teachers it's higher ups. Regardless. I ask myself the same question now as I did then, "Can we make it?"
Recalling a poem I wrote back in high school,  long gone now.  But the premise is still the same.  Will I ever find what I'm hunting for?
