The Whiskey Taster’s Flavor Guide

Leather

Dressed in black leather
Out in the weather 
An ol bike between my knees. 
Doing as I please
Life is but a tease
Wind blowing in my hair
Pushing the limits I dare
Heading towards that horizon that touches the sky
Live or die
Don't care about the why
Road leading to somewhere far away
Passing through each day
Looking for nought 
But lessons life taught
The reason why  so hard I fought
Lost
My body now pays the cost
Eyes that can no longer see that far
Hiding within that scar
Nobody can see
The Man I really be
The passion the
 pain
The stain
Aways going against the grain
Against the rules
No time for fools
Riding blind
Towards whatever I find
Till life is left behind
