Me For Miles

Me For Miles

A Poem by Riley Bray
"

Miles for minutes.

"
I'm only me for miles 
Oh dear glory 
Sadness in my smile 
In this unending story. 

But one day I'll break 
And you won't be there for me 
So I'll say 
That I'm gone. 
Yeah one day I'll break 
And I'll lose control of me 
So you'll know I'm not strong.

I'm only me for miles 
Oh dear glory 
Sadness in my smile 
In this unending story. 

So don't you pray 
To the Lord I'll get better 
Cause I like it this way 
Where I'm alone when we're together. 
So no, don't you pray 
Since I'm not getting better 
Cause I think this okay
When I'm dying forever. 

I'm only me for miles 
And my time is almost over 
So I'm falling fast 
As they run for cover. 
Don't look at me 
Or you'll lose your freedom 
Don't try save me 
Or you're done...

Sorta getting the song lyrics vibe from this. Don't know if thats what you were going for, but I was feeling it.
