The Distance of an Interstate Highway

Tongue-tied at the state line
Thought we would make it by now
But I keep looking at you
With the same questions in my head
And you just turn up the radio
With the same words left unsaid
And you're right next to me
But I don't know where you are
I'm right next to you
But you don't know who I am
Blinded in the sunlight
The road just disappears
But you keep on driving
Until we find the next dead end
I stare out the window
As your anger hops in
And you're right next to me
But I don't know where you are
And I'm right next to you
But you don't know who I am
Romanced in the darkness
My heart is too heavy to care
So I just take a deep breath
Waiting for this ride to end
Because every time I reach for you
The distance appears again
And you're right next to me
But I never seem to reach you
And I'm right next to you
But you never seem to care

I remember you telling me about him.
I liked this because it captures the trucking and the life end as well.

Ugh, I definitely know that feeling, Karabeara.
I really like this poem and am glad to see you finished it and finally brought it to life. IT'S ALIVE. IT'S ALIIIIVE! eh-hem....
Anyway, I like that it has a song feel to it. Chorus and all. I like the change up in the chorus too.
So glad to see you back. So glad to see you posting again.
Ebar huggins.

I feel your isolation, longing and desperation and have been there myself.
I really take pleasure in reading work that I can experience and I definitely experienced this with your wondrous placement of words.
Thank you, please keep writing I'll keep reading.
