I wish I could say, this is a
journey that, I'll never forget
that would be nonsense to
mention, knowing that time
will change my place and erase
the past like like the backspace key
that sweeps away the lines I've
written, like the wrinkles that I
will not try to hide behind, having
my skin pulled back, stretching
a surprised grin across my face
through time there's space and
I'm still in the race, running like
hell in my mind, rapid thoughts
pressing toward the mark of
a higher calling, I'll get there
if I have to arrive crawling
fatigue and bloody knees
I see the door,I recognize
the knocks and I hear
the keys turning in
the padlock
chains falling
all around me
I am now free
