55 in a 35,
Window open on a sub zero day
I realize I am simply
A rendition of what my parents
Hate most of themselves
I am the things they feared of becoming
I jump voids for fun
And laugh until my head goes numb
I know my heart and I know it's broken
But I am comforted knowing
That I can rewrite myself
As many times as I need
Act on my impulses every day
Until I am unrecognizable
I'm not afraid to be
The crazy one anymore
I guess that's just what happens
When something irreparable snaps
Deep inside you
I smile in relief,
And speed up to 70
