It never entered my mind
to look elsewhere
closing my eyes
to see inside
caught in the maelstrom
slowly crushed
by brick and stone
doing what others do
what if I am the rebel
I was meant to be
to look nowhere
to go free
carried by wind and rain
making miles to finally see
what it means to be me
It entered my mind
Inspired by ‘It never entered my mind’
(Miles Davis plays for lovers)
