Soul exposed
like a billboard
on a highway

Diamonds  
collecting dust
beside a band of gold
in my glovebox

I gave you time
I tried

Goodbye

"I gave you time.

Goodbye."
All I ask for is time...
it never always works out...James

Driving thoughts...Sometimes I am so deep in thought, it is a wonder I don't run more red lights than I do.  Yikes.

You convey so much pain in so few words.  Nice job, Sue.  Ken

One can think and drive at the same time? I never knew that!
Just kidding. Sad, Sue.
Maybe the brakes are dragging a bit?

Sometimes there is nothing left to do except saddle up and get out of Dodge by sunrise.  

Safe passage, godspeed.

Very pretty tweets, however sad it is.

It's a long road to be left stranded on.

Hugs, you~

My deaceased husband used to tell me to try to go to sleep and give my brain a rest. I wish that I could do that now where he's concerned (give my brain a rest, that is). Especially after I've found out some of the things he did.

... ahh if cars could speak and refer the thoughts that are thought within their space ... round and round they go ... the thoughts.
Your few words are so powerful and say so much.
Excellent job.
Love, Margherita

'soul open like a billboard on a highway'.
Very deep, you have to be able to trust a person completely, or it does not work for you. Maybe you need to begin to retreat within to repair your inner being, we first have to love ourselves before we can love others. great writing as usual suz.  rose.

Sue- This one, as many of yours, cut straight to the bone and beyond. I have my own band of gold in the glove box.
Another masterpiece.

Day after day I'm more confused,
So I look for the light through the pouring rain...
