Surrounded by shadows, who knows how long I’ve been awake,
laying here dreaming of the time when finals are done and I can newly awake.
At last! The tests are over and possessions packed tightly in boxes, wrapped up in bags.
The thrill of the day long adventure alone in my car tingles my body awake.
Singing my heart out along with Delilah as the miles flash by my eyes
as the feel of the hot sticky wheel in my hands keeps me awake.
Driving for miles and miles, and yet still more to check off, eyes begin to droop.
The wind rips through my hair, reminding me to keep arousing my faculties and awake.
Landscapes become familiar and my heart surges with joy.
Hugs and kisses all around, cries of welcome fill the air. I am completely awake.
