Flying Over Concrete Skies

The thunder of wind streaking by

Rain forming a sheet of droplets over my eyes

Pressing its grains into my body

As I rush onwards

I avoid the cars as I rush on through the rain, my clothes flapping haphazardly in the wind. The maddening drone of the engine drowns out all thoughts in my mind except the ones which keep me alive, my tiny eyes narrowing further to squint through the fog and lights.

Arms around my waist

Hiding from the wind

Shivering slightly

It’s been a while.
