Spent the week at Lake Erie
But I’m about to leave
It’s been quiet
In between the noise
Of my niece and nephew
Playing with chalk & toys
So I’ve gotten plenty of
Family time & sleep
Though still feel weary
But I think it has more to do
With who I am as a person
Because for some reason
I’ve always gotten anxious
Whenever leaving Lake Erie
Fade To Black (Erie Feeling)
