Off on your bike
Only half a frown
somewhere down the road
maybe space for a smile
If not let the sun do the rest
Or some far off admirer
you successfully impress
how fast you go
The other day out for a jog
Clouds parted and conversations halted
pavement peeling away
passing grey as serious as gravity
You sporting the effort across your face
As if you lost some piece of yourself
looking over here
Yeah its warm but freedom is empty
chew that lower lip
thoughtful confusion
drains into the abyss
such an adventurous one
slipped into my slumber
While i was fumbling ambitions
And uneven pieces of myself
crossed a threshold somewhere
Pouring off the road all the way into the sun
lighting up the day for one
desperate to live as I
A lost child questioning these cycles of existences
As they swirl through decades and back around into the meaningless expectations
slippery paths that lead me to the energy so desperate to get out into the street
you read my eyes in a fraction of a second reading me entirely
My fumbling ambitions the attempts to grandstand
Like a toddler on a podium that´s me
draining all this tension into the abyss
But enough remains to wash us away
struggling against the currents
Put on that half smile
pedal over our sunbaked streets
Somewhere down the road I'll be admiring the sights
A piece of me half stuck out of the bark
Contemplating my purpose
Bite that lip
Interrupt my sleep
Help me live up to the heights of
These thousand mountains behind us
