Our Last Car Ride (original poem)

in poetry •  8 years ago 

It’s not just a car ride
My mind’s not on driving
Steering between the lines
of words we’re not saying

I hear the road noise
My body is bracing
Braking for yellow lights
that we’ve been ignoring

It’s not just a car ride
It feels like a break up
I see the flashing lights
I'm not sure we'll make it

I look and I see you
You look and you see me
The sun is crashing on the pavement
and we’re just two people driving
