headlights

she was the ghost in his headlights,
but he was the light at the end of her dark tunnel,

confused by the light he stopped,
but nothing appeared to be there,

the light she saw,
was just another crying out wolf

he began to drive away,
but the thought of that ghost still on his mind,

the trick,
tricked her,

but she is not giving up here,

as soon as he got home,
he stepped in the shower

as soon as she got home,
she sat in the running bath water

he wondered why seeing that ghost keeps happening to him,

she keeps wondering if this will ever fucking end

he has a solution,

she hasn't found one yet

struggling,
to winning

tears stream down both they're faces

where did we go wrong?
