it's possible that i might fall off the end of the road
as my head is in pain
and i strain
everything i am
i hope i can make it back home
before i close my eyes
and fall into a hole
or even worse
you might never know where i am again
that would kill me more than
a hammer to my head
but that is how i felt
the tears become a pool
what if i never touched your hand
felt your smile
or kissed your lips
grateful for the solid ground
resting and still waiting
and so i know
you are keeping a blanket tucked away
in your secret closet.
for our lifetime.
Author notes
so glad i am home and not on the highway! ouch my head!

I don't know if she's driving home or on a train but I can feel the longing in this piece and have sympathy for her.
