Map to No Where Land
So it’s cloudy outside
With a sigh, I growl with despise.
There’s a wind knocking on my heart
Begging and begging to break me apart.
There’s so much to be told
As I grumble at the wind
Do I fold?
Or behold
Maybe mold my life as it
Swaying and praying, spraying my wishes
Wistfully through the years
With some fears
That I might tear myself apart
Ruthlessly without despair
Shall I dare?
To live like the wind
Freely and without a care?
I don’t know what to do.
Like most, I am lost in a place some might call home.
But as for me, as for me I call it know where land.
Where my fears, and my tears all hear what I have to say
Yet they say nothing in return because they know just as well as I do that there is nothing more for me here.
I need to leave.
I need to go.
But where on the map was I born to lead?
I don’t know.
I don’t care. I don’t care. I don’t care.
I mean who does, really?
So I’ll go but I don’t know where I’ll end up. And that’s okay. So what’d you say?
