Drive and Trust
A poem about lost love
When I came home that fateful day
I saw what I feared most
A missing car from our lot
And missing stuff from our home
He was gone
He was gone
I cried for hours to come
I cried for lost love
I cried for lost time
I cried for the days
That would never greet me
I wanted answers
But would not get any
But his phone remains turned off
Blocking my tries to reach him
I need him
I want him
I have to keep him
It seems toxic
I know
But love is love
No matter how messed up
He’s just lost
He just needs guidance
He just needs assurance
That our love
That our time together
Was not in vain
I have to save him
I have to find him
If drive I must
To the location he hinted to
Then drive I must
No luck
One duck stuck
Stuck in the muck
Down in her scary scary feels
No one loves me
No one loves me
That’s what my life shows
I’m not worthy of staying for
I’m not worthy of living for
But as I opened the door
He was standing there
Tears streaking down his face
I came home
He said
I realized something today
I’m lost without you
I can’t live without you
I won’t even try
I thought I was protecting you
But I was only hurting you
And I know that now
But trust comes harshly
And trust comes rarely
He’s home in my arms
But my heart still beats quickly
Will I trust him
Maybe
Or maybe not
We’ll see
But for now
I’ll sleep in his arms
Where we both belong
