I sometimes wish I could
get into my car

and drive

not stopping to say one last
goodbye or pack a bag...

just drive

not ready for anything
not expecting anything

I want to just drive away from
my life...

but also drive towards my life
a life away from here

completely unknown
but yet a whole new life
of my own

I want to just drive away from my life..but also drive towards my life/ a life away from here..but yet a whole new life of my own. Yes, Yuri, that's why we are flesh abd blood, a body that pulls in one direction, and a soul that gives our bodies back to us and we are ever moving from one to the other and then back to ourselves, freshly hatched in our souls. It is a conundrum, yet ever so clear. You have my 10 on this.
