Work Text:
my bike is an escape.
a way to ride around
wind in my face
with no care in the world.
i get to see nature
and can get lost in my thoughts.
it’s a joyride through my beach town
at any time of day.
sunrise,
midday,
sunset,
night.
music blasting in my ears,
big thoughts
or little ones,
while riding by the lakeside.
seeing houses i only dream of buying
and porches i hope to lie on.
seeing pools i long to swim in
and views i wish to forever see.
i want to stay here forever
but i have to leave soon.
these memories on my bike
stay here.
and in my heart.
