I have heartburn, it's 1 in the morning, and I want cuddles.

Heck.

I want to get out of this awful city and explore with my closest friends.
Somewhere with abandoned houses,
Hipster shops,
Old gas stations,
A good music scene.
A place I can love,
And a place where I feel safe to be loved.

Ghost stories,
Making friends with the old ladies who own the antique stores,
Attending funerals of people we never knew,
And an arts district with flowers and record stores.

Falling deeper into the world of punk;
Screaming music that makes us thrash about and feel alive
Spiking up our hair to the point it could be weaponized
Excessive makeup we can hide behind
Being us.

I just want to leave here.
