my summer anklet my only remains from my sun perfumed days
out on the beach, splashes of water
dismantling the house of burdens forged on my shoulders
I like simplicity, too much chaos in the city
my anxiety revving up like the motorcycle I was too nervous to ride
I start another year of university, first time not in the void of cyberspace
an echo chamber it feels like, daydreams of paradise to get me through
classes fill my days and my alarm can no longer snooze
but plenty of ***** and bud, still on the run towards the old summer fun
impermanence has me baffled I am so pussyfooted
my dreams unraveling but its not as I thought
wishes are tricky, shooting stars can inflict harm
at what cost, am I too soft, is the world too hard?
thoughts as I sit on the train and sing a somber song
