Howl and the Void
Tonight I want to howl at the moon
Leave my mundane little life behind for a brief time
I want to howl at the moon and tell her my frustrations
Instead here I sit once more
Face attending the bright computer screen
The howl slowly fading within me
I wanted to howl but I tamped it down
Is it worth it to stay in "normal" life?
Where do my howls go
Perhaps the great moon could hear me howl
Though I did not let out a peep
For I heard the void calling to me
"Come to me child" it seemed to say
Speed your car along the road and let the turns make you their prey
The void called out my name
I let myself sit on the edge
Waiting to fall
Wondering if the void would swallow me whole
I sped along
But I did not let the curves take me away
The void is still calling my name
Leave my mundane little life behind for a brief time
I want to howl at the moon and tell her my frustrations
Instead here I sit once more
Face attending the bright computer screen
The howl slowly fading within me
I wanted to howl but I tamped it down
Is it worth it to stay in "normal" life?
Where do my howls go
Perhaps the great moon could hear me howl
Though I did not let out a peep
For I heard the void calling to me
"Come to me child" it seemed to say
Speed your car along the road and let the turns make you their prey
The void called out my name
I let myself sit on the edge
Waiting to fall
Wondering if the void would swallow me whole
I sped along
But I did not let the curves take me away
The void is still calling my name
