I drove with you sitting next to me <br />My arm around you <br />You leaning on me <br />Our love starting but ending so soon <br /> <br />I yelled out as the car hit your side <br />My head on the wheel <br />Your blood on the ground <br />Reaching out for your hand but failing <br /> <br />I woke up to flashing lights around me <br />The wet pavement <br />It was raining down <br />I was fine by then but you were gone <br /> <br />I feel the warmth now in the summer <br />One year has since passed <br />It’s so hard to live <br />Hoping to see you but nevermore <br /> <br />I walk through the lifeless empty yard <br />So full of people <br />It’s not fair for them <br />Forbidden to leave but not wanted <br /> <br />I stop to leave your favorite flowers <br />You are now at peace <br />I’ve forgotten love <br />And what it is but I’ll ne’er forget you <br /> <br />And I’d give anything just to be able to sit and talk with you just one more time <br />To see you, to hear you, to watch you laugh so innocently <br />To have you, to hold you, to feel the love growing deep between us <br />And I’d give anything just to be able to see that Monroeville sunset again<br /><br />David DeAngelo<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-story-of-our-love-ii-monroeville-sunset/
