Will I have enough breath
To exhale the whole length
Of this road lying ahead
Asphalt mirage never ends
Mad crickets laugh
Their breath shapes the sound
Of my own long regrets
Stretching from sunrise to sundown
The mountains look near
But I’m never there yet
What a sad July day
Burnt out by expectations
Self combustion
By means of excessive restraint
I’ve just enough breath
To go up in flames
