Leaving At Midnight

leaving at midnight
till the gas runs out
the engine may blow
how badly i have waited

leaving at midnight
till her shift arrives again
may in up in the side highway woods
maybe a need to be sedated

leaving at midnight
till the sun burns to my expectations
perhaps something poisonous will execute me
maybe then i will be properly elated
