Poetry Challenge Day 22: Quirk

*This is a descort poem. No line is the same in the poem.

Fast Car

I find it 
quirky 
That my eleven year old daughter’s favorite song is 
“Fast Car” by Tracy Chapman 
Song 
About troubles of life 
With the promise of living if we could get away by driving fast 
Of living with the promise of love 
When I ask her 
Why she likes the song 
She just smiles at me, eyes light up and says that she just does 
I understand how music connects to our soul 
Maybe it makes her feel that she 
    “could be someone, be someone, be someone”
