Vegas

“Lift off, take flight

I’m living the life
Racing down the boulevard
Under the Vegas lights” -Mary J. Blige

The air is dry
But thick
With a thousand dreams
Of winning big
And becoming a star

I was won over with
Decadent spa treatments
Adventurous ziplines
Reliving the Jackson 5 era
And where else can you travel the world in just a few city blocks?

They say what happens in Vegas
Stays in Vegas
But why leave all that behind in the desert?

I’m packing the glitz
The glamour
And the sun
The comedy
The music
And the willingness to bet it all
For my dreams
Because I need a little Vegas
When the lights are dim
At home
