Car crash
2 April, 2008
I think I lost you in a car crash.
I don’t remember now.
I woke up dreaming again,
Reaching for the empty space that lies between us.
You said you would never leave me.
I guess you were taken away.
You really couldn’t help it.
I don’t want any more promises, nothing new to break.
In the shivering of a new dawn,
The light just seems cold and grey.
Is that blood on the horizon?
If only it could seep a thousand-thousand miles into you.
Mechanical life and robotic days.
I feel so gratefully numb, my dear.
I did think about ending it all,
But if I am gone, who will remember what we once were?
When I can fight back the tears,
I try to smile at your smile,
Playing on a projector in my head.
But I can’t look at the dark shadows filling up your eyes.
I would pull out my desolate soul,
If I could feel your missing touch.
Just one second is all I crave.
Did I ever tell you I love you? It never stops pouring from
my mouth.
