3am and no one

Felt my feet movin toward the pathway
there was a moment I knew the possibility
I could just turn around and go back
go to sleep
try to dream
but the footsteps kept going and my mind
would catch up by the time I realized
I was driving down the barren streets
of
3am
last
night

and

it was fun
free
abandoned
no one
was
there

just me and my car and my music and
just me

and my thoughts of you

mixing with the comfort
the crunchy confinement
the place I know the best
that itchy coat of quiet
as the car moves forward
but my will stands still
my eyes searching
for what
for naught
for something
for a sign

I turned right
I went straight
I went fast
I put the windows down
I felt like the only one left

as I circled back
finding my way home
I wished this would never end
things would be so much easier
this
way

always
3am
and
no one
