i sang with my heroes the other night

in an ac/dc shirt and jeans and converse

and i could feel my hair in my face

as i screamed and cried and laughed as

i let out those words that i love so much

and i can't begin to form the right words

to say that that was the most

beautiful time in my life and that as i saw

him sing and i saw them play and

i watched as he sang his heart out

and i wanted to do the same so badly

i wrote out "stay free" on my knuckles

and i jutted my fist into the air as

i let the words loose and i could almost

feel them flutter away and soar

instead of cripple and die like the do usually

and i feel proud because of that

and i can't hear or walk right today

i'm so sore and i'm proud of that

i felt my words go free and every time

my loose feet slammed into the ground

to push me higher

i felt like flying

i let them out and breathed them in

and i saw other souls there

just like me and i felt their skin on mine

and i could feel those heavy words

ripping from

the speakers in choppy angry crackling

shouts and tears

and i felt my own shouts

burn my throat

what's left for only you

to take if i put too much blood

on the page

i can feel the bass in my lungs

i can feel tears in my eyes

i can feel a smile on my face

i want to be here forever

listening to his voice and

those guitars

in this beer-smelling, brick-walled

place i call home

because i was never too cool for

any band

i discovered my stars and i

never want to let them go

and i promise myself i won't

as i stand tossed in the waves and

in the throws of teenage rebellion
