The rose fell to the floor
As loneliness echoed through the slamming door
My heart squeezed love's pain
I was alone and left in the rain

My car a spaceship to emptiness
Taking me from happiness
I was allowed to go anywhere
Except here

The rain fell with my tears
Each tear a memory of the years
I can't look back
Or the tender moments would react

And hold me in the puddles of pain
My will was weak and I cried again
The headlights blurred my vision
I had to make a decision

I turned back around and drove fast
I wasn't going to give up the past
I should have told her how much I loved her
How could I have left unsure

I was ready and the rain had stopped
Jumped from the car and the gate I hopped
Busted through the door without a care
Shocked! To see her arms around another man in his underwear

ver sad and well expressed anguish

Poetry is:
Passion, imagination and intellect running together.

Don't recall reading this one. I think it would be a good addition to the book.
