i'll have a future when i get there
my head will spill imaginative ideas everywhere
but what is this number to me now?
a reminder of my first heartbreak
how many days of sunshine i have missed studying
how many nights of love i passed up
a combining smell of ink and books
of burning brain cells and both ends of a candle
a number that shows just how lonely the last
few years have been
i know this number will help me win
but right now all it has done is cause loss
at first glance, it's beautiful and mysterious
encompassing all theories of grace and intellect
soaring high above your average image of power
a hint of the future...lazy, loving and decadent
upon closer examination one will find the truth
beauty cloaked in fear, grace simply imagined
intellect dismantling every foundation of love
false cruel tendencies align with manipulation
a number insignificant and worthless to most
denoting lonely travels amidst lofty dreams
unknowing catalyst of jealousy and blame
always the wind to extinguish any wild flame
