Windows down, with the music loud.

I feel my hair swirling around.

I sing along to the smooth melody,

Smiling like a kid who just got candy.

Life sure gets easy when you get away

From all your responsibilities,

Even if it is just for 20 minutes.

The air smells of fall, as I see the leaves

Fall down from the trees. I look to the side,

And there is a field of flowers, it’s a gorgeous

Scene.

I love how I always feel wild and free,

Maybe one day I could be like these

Leaves I see. And float away merrily.

I smile at the thought, as I pull into

My driveway. If only I had the guts to

Run away, maybe I’ll be what I’ve always

Wanted.
