Where Are My Words?

driving

I drove in the pouring rain,
I still managed to see your face.

I was driving so fast,
yet you kept following me.

I may have swerved off road,
but I swear it wasn't my fault!

I watched you disappear from my view
as I skid over water.

I spun and I spun,
rear ahead of front.

I screamed and I yelled,
and I flipped a few times...

I felt my world stop,
and the rain hit my face.

I realized it was glass and blood,
instead of the water pouring in.

I gazed towards the road,
hundreds of feet away.

I was so cold, freezing,
words wouldn't come out.

I sat there, in the driver's seat
of my overturned vehicle.

I closed my eyes and heard a voice;
it wasn't yours.

I felt so much pain
stinging and pounding in my nerves.

I crashed in the pouring rain,
and I'm glad you weren't there to see.

I apologize for driving off
and getting myself hurt.

I am sorry that I scarred my face
from the cuts and scrapes.

I don't want you to be mad
because I was all alone!

I know you told me not to go,
but I thought you knew I like the rain?

I wanted to apologize
for making you yell.

I wanted to say sorry
for making you hit me.

I drove off in the pouring rain,
and I used you as an excuse.

I went off and got hurt,
and I have blamed you.

I listened to you yell,
you said you didn't care.

I am glad you didn't see me,
I was such a mess.

I looked so ugly,
and you'd probably agree.

I know it was my fault.
I'm sorry, please, don't hurt me!

I crashed and destroyed that car.
My parents said it would be okay!

I don't understand why you're mad!
Can you tell me?

I don't know what I did;
I'm the one who's hurt!

I drove through the pouring rain,
only to get away from you.

I made a mistake,
not the accident,

You..
