Farewell to a friend

we spent many late nights together
together we traveled the country
you sheltered me from the world
and i full filled all your needs

then

that night

our world was thrown into turmoil
another stepped in our path
another like you but misguided
another ...

you protected me
you protected my friend
you protected us from harm

My friend
My world
my car ...

you will be missed.

It's not the blindfold that blinds you,
it's the person that puts it there.

I understand this fully, me too I have such a relationship with my car ... and in your case the farewell was evidently dramatic.
Good write.
Love, Margherita

I'm hoping only the cars were damaged,
and the occupants safe...

such a scary time.
