Ride

A Poem by Marissa

I did mean to take it this far
though I did not mean for it to get like this.
a night right on my brain,
becoming what I am about
setting myself up for disaster
slow swerving and the cars are getting faster
nerves vibrating into laughter
is that really what I am after?
I feel myself push the test of desire
if I fail, I'll be trying like it matters
do not bother with flatter
I've got a grip like I'm running out of ladder
dangling life in front of the driver
react, or hope to the be survivor
I am tired of being a heartless survivor.
