Pouring rain, drizzling down the window,
My life reflected in this cafe glass
One huge jig saw puzzle.
The pieces once fit,
But now have fallen away.
One piece from pure intention,
Thoughts lingering back,
When two souls shared
The same motion together.
Coming from the theater that night,
Seeing the happiness burning
In those eyes, crippling, discovering
devotion in a whole new world.
Who was to ever guess,
The future we shared would change.
Moving through the intersection
The reverberation of crunching metal,
Overtake the eerie sounds of silence.
The pieces that once fit,
Now are scattered all over.
There we lay, two pieces,
Crumbled in a heap,
The full weight of your body
now on top of me.
Balmy, red crimson
bleeds from the nose, mouth and ears,
No time to feel, remorse
For I know the sound of dying breathe,
Feeling comfort, binding the warmth
From your skin,
I know you would not be dying alone,
But in the arms of the one you loved.
Sirens echo in the distance,
off the concrete walls.
Smothering, I held you so closely,
Helplessly, I felt the moist of my tears,
Run down, washing, the desire to live.
