Dedicated to refinedperception because she always gave my poems a read whenever she got back and she's a cool person 😎

If I knew 

That I'd crave escape 

On this cool night 

With an air of prospective adventures, sights and euphoric surges -

I would have taken better care of my bicycle. 

^^
So that 

I'd tempt Death as I procrastinate, 

Yeah I want to feel the Grim Reaper's scythe graze my neck hairs 

As I spread my arms out wide 

Like the wings of an airplane 

And arch my head forward to aid my myopic eyes 

As I scorch down never ending descents. 

^^
I should have taken better care 

Of that rusty worn out 

Teleportation vessel 

To a world of racing winds  

Zooming lights 

And danger, risk and fear....

A world of tranquility, peace 

And breathing and thinking space. 

^^
The experience is nothing compared to reliving it through words...

Writing poetry 

On such a beautiful inviting night...

What a waste of this rare desire 

To jump out into the dark abyss 

Of the Moon's impenetrable fortress.
