The Driver

Our bare feet have shared wet kisses with tar 
Our dreams overwhelming every wound or scar 
We never thought we would reach this far
Honey, I just can’t forget how we fancied a car
How we prayed perpetually before the morning star

Now that we have His blessing
You’ve become an expert in driving
You drive me nuts 
You drive me mad 
You drive me insane 
You drive me bananas 
You drive me crazy
You have forgotten our home
You just can’t drive me home!

For had you driven your heart into mine
And taken a tour through my feelings, 
You would have explored a statue of feelings
Sweet, old feelings I miss from you...

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life."
