I'm The Last Car On The LotA Poem by MeganI'm the last car on the lot I feel free, holding only keys No concentration, just getting there Getting to my metal door
Simple comfort, small task Free, to think of silly things Free, to be a kid with a simple dream What's happened to our innocence
Stones under my sneakers The wind plays with my hair On the short walk to my car Vulnerable, if only for a few minutes
The pale, cold sunlight on my face Cotton hugging my waist If only I could walk like this forever No eyes scorching my soul, no voices commanding my mind
I smile to myself, think maybe I'm crazy Take small steps, savor the moment Sing out loud, no one's listening This is me, the one no one here sees I'm the last car on the lot © 2008 Megan |
