I Saw the Tv Glow

Have you ever seen the TV glow? 

We have all seen the blinding light the TV gives off, 

But have you truly seen it glow? 

 

I Saw the TV Glow, 

And for the first time, I felt peace- 

I felt content in my life, 

I felt infinite. 

 

The bright lights, 

The crowds, the life. 

The life I wish to live, 

So I can relive that feeling. 

 

So I can watch the TV glow again.

    a block or so down

    I know the mountains were not formed by him

    Instead it is the science in the world

    The reason we are here in this moment
