Rainy Ride

Taps knock against the glass

Their cold drops layer my jacket and freeze the skin

My heart is just another heavy burden to carry across my shoulder

It's bits lie about in the seat, awaiting your return

In hopes you might spend the time you once had to fix me

I could so easily move on, I know this

But I can't, you have me "wrapped around your finger"

My heart strewn asunder, littering the bus we ride

Every morning and in the afternoon

I wait for you, fighting sleep just to glance at your eyes

But my body gives in after a long night of nightmares

I slump in my seat and slumber, hearing your heels

I stop and jolt awake...missing your eyes

My spirits plummet ever further after hoping you'd sit by me

You passed right by

As in all things I'm late,

Late to ask you

Late to give you a chance

And now I'm late to love and trust the girl I can't live without

I don't believe in second chances, especially in my case

I get that you kind of really hate me at this moment

It's okay, I join you in the bitter agony that is hurting me

This rainy ride is missing its passenger

And so I drive alone

Water crowns apon my eyes like an ocean break

Its waves crash over my cheeks and graze the scars apon my body

Since I've seen you there are more than just a few

I'm sorry, but this rainy ride is crashing
