Why must you try to keep me
From the people
And places I love?
Tonight, my heart was filled
With joy and carelessness,
I drifted off into ecstatic oblivion,
Until you reminded me that it
Was time to go.
Time to leave it all behind
And move on.
Drive away,
Into the dark,
With only the glimmer
Of the headlights, and
My hope to return to
The people of
The Center of the Universe
Once again.
Guiding our way.
