Who Am I

Chaotic search for an answer Whirling thoughts overwhelm me Mind like a computer Words soft like velvet A skittish baby deer Drinking $2 black coffee I could have made it at home Pretension all around me Utter silence restrains me I am no better than anybody Heterochromatic eyes scan the room What a black and white world with open eyes With every blink, rainbow stars explode Dreaming of breaking out in song Adventure and licorice scented treats Wishful thinking to break walls down My soul setting the room ablaze Blinding emotions, covered eyes I dream of being free For now, I'll drink my $2 coffee I could have made at home
