JUST LIKE MYSELF
Miracle mile.
I just stood on the road.
Like now that I’d got here.
There was no where to go.
I found X Marks the Spot
Before everyone else
But then I was standing on
... miracle mile
All by myself.
I was certainly thankful
To my resident host
But I was otherwise lost here
& chasin’ a ghost.
I had found ALL I could live for
341 miles away
From the place I had run from
And started to hate
When people are cunning
And devious too -
The last thing they think of
Is what happens to you.
So there I am standing
On miracle mile
And while crying and laughing
I started to smile
Because if I fought just to come here
Then somebody else
Was also here
Longing
Just like myself.
