Poems
Jul 2018
going back is hard. looking back is the hardest.
raindrops waltz on the window glass
cold air blew from the inside fast
yellow street lights blur afar
farther, the dark blue twilight stars
but to be farthest from home
soft purr of the revving engine
asphalt wet from tears of heaven
silent music, or at least for me
i chose to listen with the notes empty
i had no choice
twelve-hour ride felt so fun
twelve hours back felt like one
slumber saves my heart and sanity
no dreams, but no reality
and there's no going back
closer, from where i was born
but the road to my soul, stretching horizon
neither alive nor dead nor shy
no joy, but no tears left to cry
'cause no corner of emotions left to pry
and there's no going back
i had no choice
but to be farthest from home
.
looking back is realizing the impossibility of going back.
