Love, Your Lonely Trucker Wife

Another night alone Because the road is all you know. Carry my heart with you please Do with it what you will. Every moment that you are gone Fear consumes my soul. Giving me reason to feel this cold How hard to live this lonesome life. I've given you all of me Just to watch your tired eyes Kill my ounce of hope. Living this life has grown so old My mind understands Never will my heart. Of all the things in the world Pulling that load hurts me the most. Questions flutter across the room Regrets unspoken and how they consume. Struggling to survive day to day Torn to nothing Unaware and ashamed. Vigorously searching for what is unknown Warmth of your touch is all I long for. Xanthic flesh from our years Zealous no more from these tears.
