Drive

Drive

Been a long time,

Searching in the wrong direction

…longer,

Living in the wrong collection

Feeling fine, now

Longing for the next affection

…hoping,

It won’t be the same selection

 

Been away some,

Free from the worlds infliction

…grateful,

In others I found the same conviction

So I can move, fast

Tranquil with the contradiction

…unworried,

That I'll fall to the same addiction

 

Been single,

Living life without condition

…underneath it,

In love with the same musician

But I can stay, true

No longer in the past position

…sturdy,

Soakin' up my life’s ambition

 

Four books,

A memoir, now on number five

…stories,

Buried by the past alive

Though, in this one

You’ll find that I’ve learned to drive

…head strong

Knowing that I will survive

Drive

can seem that way..making the same choices over and over..but where ever you are the green always seems greener..its an optional illusion though..the line of sight always adds a depth of colour.. another solid write..I dont need to pat you on the back ..you know it works.

Ha now this chapter is awesome. I love the titles connection and the positive nature of this poem. Absolutely beautiful work.

Moved me and rocked my world. Love the poem. I am sure there is a story behind it. Nicely done.

This reminds me of the song Infected by Bad Religion or maybe it is rancid. Anyway i know this feeling well. Yes survival is always going to happen but it doesn't mean there aren't scars and pain that go along with the journey.

I like to drive to allow my mind to relax and think. To release things. I like the flow of thoughts and the very strong ending. Thank you for the excellent poem.

I liked the determination almost, that seemed to come across at the end. The first line, I thought, was really good, with the pattern it followed. What I also liked was that there was a story in this, that somehow seemed to delve into the past and present.

I enjoyed this very much..Your words come across strong. A classic muscle car comes to mind, a Comaro perhaps? Great write!
