Route 88

Driving down the Interstate

In Life I have always been Late

Fingers Crossed, wishing on the number 8

I don’t know where I should go.


Watching everyone succeed

My heart left in this gut wrenching greed.

I can’t catch up to their speed.

Everything for me has felt so slow.


When will it be my time?

To reach the top of my Climb?

To hear a joyous chime.

That I will be saved from this overflow.


My Route is Unknown.

And for now I have to cross it alone.

Trusting the direction I’ll be blown.

In due time I will know.
