time passes too quickly Like the lighting bugs zipping into the vanishing point Outside my car window As a little girl Driving through Pawhuska Oklahoma I miss my disposition Back in those days I had so much to give So little to lose before you know It You’ve become who you feared you would be In my room ***** plates Stack of books i am not reading Piles of unkempt jewlery Dying plants i never water Telling myself: Maybe I’m just a decision away If I let go of everything I have I’ll find everything I’ve wanted if I call these words a prayer Can i find a way?
