Biding Time (2020)

For most of my life, I've traveled alone. 

In the next two years, I won't have to anymore. 

I'll cross the ocean 

Leaving memories behind 

And if anyone tries to bring me back, 

Then I'll take my own life. 

I won't have to remember Kentucky anymore, 

I can't wait for the time to discover a new world 

For a chance, 

A chance. . . A chance to begin. 

It's hard to imagine someone loving me 

When a lot of people walked away 

And others lost themselves, mentally. 

Does my writing now look like a man? 

Or is it from the visions of a boy who ran? 

Would you root for me from afar? 

Or say goodbye when I'm long gone? 

I've tried my hand. I've done what I could. 

I've dreamed, I've failed, I've wished, I would. 

And sometimes, I can't... 

But with her, I could.
