I wrote this while I was on a road trip and was kind of inspired. Sorry it's bad, it's kind of old.

Four hours to go...
Leaving home behind
Not looking back
Only looking at the road ahead

Three hours to go...
Home is no where in sight
Road trip excitement is soon wearing off
Tiredness taking over

Two hours to go...
Already took a nap
Home is long forgotten
Only seeing what is ahead
Driving...driving
Driving down the twisty road

One hour ago...
I can see the smoke ahead.
smoke...
The radio is static
Struggling to find one station without static.
Static...
Smoke...
The car jumping at every bump in the road.
Jumping...
Static...
Smoke...
In the car with them.
Tiredness getting stronger.
Tiredness...
Jumping....
Static...
Smoke...
Cloudy sky hiding bright summer sun.
Cloudy...
Tiredness...
Jumping...
Static...
Smoke...
Trees all around us, no sight of the city.
Trees...
Cloudy...
Tiredness...
Static...
Smoke...
Passing all the little towns full of little people.
Little towns...
Little people...
Trees...
Cloudy...
Static...
Smoke...
"Destination is ahead on your right" the voice behind the screens calls.
Destination...
Little towns...
Little people...
Trees...
Cloudy...
Static...
Smoke...
Zero hours to go.
