Getting Lost

New Jax City

In the middle of nowhere; I rest,
I turned my phone off,
The night is young,
My patience is getting old,
I’m parked on a road,
I got nowhere to go
Except in my mind I am going on and
On and on about life on this open road,
Headlights kissing the grass,
Found comfort in having no destination,
I just want to be in this dark alone,
Unbothered.✍
