//Side of the Road\\

By supermutt

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

This kind of weather Seems like it's suited for a longer ride better Evening's misting, I'm missing A few little pieces of me Must've left them there on the side of the road When I stopped up, dropped up, picked that weary hitcher up Asked where he was going, he replied "To the stars" Made a little small talk But we didn't get far Before the car heated up, blew up, tripped, fell down Passenger and I thrown to the side of the road Bruised and shaken, shattered, forsaken Didn't know entirely where I was Wandered around aimlessly Dazed and confused, battered and bruised Uttering curses shamelessly Saw him laying on the side of the road Mouth open, eyes closed, heart exposed Left him there on the side of the road Laying on the side of the road Now the sky is grey The thunder's chasing me Down this long ribbon of cement Nothing before and after Only bordered by the sides of the road And the sneaking suspicion that I'm really in for it this time...February 2002, Written March 31st, 2002 © on Mar 31 2002 09:11 AM PST   20 • 0 • 10
