i have let my life pass me by without asking for a                                                     stop. the bus — crowded with hardened men crying, helpless children laughing, graceful women drifting — doesn’t                                                     stop. every light glimmers by—green— illuminating my path to growth, but my red hair red blood red heart ignite the invite to                                                     stop. so i pull the cord i interrupt the glares i stumble out of the bustling confusion i light onto solid ground and i, beamingly, ask myself if this is a                                                     stop                                                                or a start

first stop
i have let my life pass me by without asking for a                                                     stop. the bus — crowded with hardened men crying, helpless children laughing, graceful women drifting — doesn’t                                                     stop. every light glimmers by—green— illuminating my path to growth, but my red hair red blood red heart ignite the invite to                                                     stop. so i pull the cord i interrupt the glares i stumble out of the bustling confusion i light onto solid ground and i, beamingly, ask myself if this is a                                                     stop                                                                or a start
