Wrapped in indifference
we drift away from our cares
Street sleek comes calling
on deaf doors

We caught the nighthawks
diving into eternity
as summer sweated around
the reckless youth

We would never die
and live forever
In defiance of the
North star

We swear an oath
to street sweets of
no where around
Youthful laughter of love

Those were the years
When we could not be defeated
Those were the years
before we were repleated

Everyone defied the rules
Everyone laughed at death
Now where are we
As I look , no one around

Long live the dreams
cut and drawn
of my youth
Let them gleam
Jeremiah Sep 15
Masquerading the role of endearment in hopes to fill the gapping hole
Reading between every line for a sign that the track I ride is true
Stuffing my head with lies and food to steal my attention from the elephant in the room
Learning to reason with sanity only to find the truth repleated by vanity
Meaningless it seems to be tethered to the grotesque delusion of hope
Pining for another's embrace, using dope to fill this hunger as a way to cope
Wishing someone out there will spontaenously ask me to elope
Yet alas my foggy mind clears, and my thoughts gain traction, instead of love, maybe I don't need another distraction

— The End —
