Sideshow

I have listened
to one song
for four days
and fallen inside
music sung by many
but only to me.
I have allowed
the sounds
to take me from
a place I shouldn't be
into a future that
could be
and have ridden
on coattails
of those who
were brave enough
to try.
And with the words
held tight in my hands
I will march
towards them all
and join the ranks
of those
who are living
the best of themselves
and will become
it
eternally.
