It figures she's looking out at the stars again Lost in air Lost in breath I thought i'd find her laying here Coffee growing cold A view from the window Rain puddles on the sidewalks Desire tingles in her feet. To get up To travel planets. To love, all at once She sits on the edge of her dresser And twists daisies in her fingers Soon she'll fly out of here She pulls out her suitcase She packs all the unnecessary things Like broken glass and fairy wings I hear the "ziiiip" of her freedom She knows it too I hear the slam of the taxi door from outside And so I go lay down on my bed and stare at the stars
Written when I was 16, and I'm really proud of this one.
