My Mind Is...

My mind is a car

On a highway

Racing

Zooming

Going faster and faster

My mind is a plane

In the air

Full of chatter

Zipping across the sky

My mind is a train

On a track

Painstakingly loud

Packed to the brim

My mind never stops

It goes on forever

The highway doesn't end

The sky is forever

The track an endless loop

My mind is intricate

Like a spider's web

Delicate

But strong

My mind is locked

No one knows

What's in it

No one needs to know

It's under lock and key

Chained forever

My mind rattles

Keeping me awake at night

My mind is

A car

A plane

A train

That never stops moving

    Red

    White

    And Blue

    The colors of America

    We parade down the streets

    Covered in these colors

    I wonder what our parade will look like

    This year

    Will we parade with joy

    Celebrate tragedies

    Love is an open door?

    All you need is love?

    Love story?

    I know that feeling

    A bit differently

    Not quite what the song was intended for

    But I know of love

    That opens doors

    The love that is

  • Dear New York City

    Dear New York City,

    I don’t know what it is

    That makes me love it so much

    Maybe it’s the buildings

    That stretch towards the sky

    Forever reaching upwards
