Hitchhiker

By Jazz Daffy

Seven sleepless nights
Can seem like forever
When merely a grain in the sands of time

Ninety-three miles
Can seem like a million
When lost as a pinpoint among the stars

One silver ring
Can seem like the world
When the moment calls mayday at your feet

Ecstacy
Can seem like a holiday
When cold nights remember last year's fire

A heartbreak
Can seem like the end
When drowned in the blood of a country

Define love
In a man or two
Define life
In four apologies
Define me and you
In 80 words or less

    That was brutal, structured and impressive. I loved every stanza to this. :)

    The last stanza was killer. Very nice piece. It was rough and it wasnt delicate, it was a straight voice in an empty hall speaking nothing but truth. nicely done. -Glass
