Wearing Your Shirt, Doing 80 in the Rain by Meredith C HartwellTonight,
I am remembering every night
that we spent keeping pace,
and making up for lost time.
In separate cars,
we kept our conversation lively
as we drove each other home.
I could drain the desert,
but all the oil in the world
won't get me to you now.
I am hydroplaning home,
the wet road losing friction
as I slide in on my own.
We have always come home together, love.
I don't know how to get there alone. 03/18/2005 Posted on 03/18/2005 Copyright © 2025 Meredith C Hartwell
