The Saddest Story Known To the Human Heart

He sped home, His hands covered with desperation Pedal down to the cold of the floor His mind clouded with hesitation She stood alone on the porch, Her hands covered with damnation Heart cold from the winter night She was yearning for the liberation Tears streamed from down his eyes The night was clouded like a horror movie Breaths are heavy and cold with perspiration Thinking, “How could she do this to me?” Her legs gave out, As she collapsed to the floor Headed to the phone She crawled to the door His love burned out, As he slammed on the gas Eyes blurred with tears He was going way to fast She had to tell him, He was the love of her life Phone was cold as she grasped it She quickly dialed his number in strife His phone rang in the side of his jeans He scrambled for it and saw her name Mind conflicted whether to pick it up He answered in a crying shame She hears his voice from the other side She tells him she loves him and starts to cry Then it happened She never got to say goodbye His speedometer was to the max, His attention was taken of the street Head on collision He had his life swept from under his feet She heard the crash on the other end Screamed out his name in an awful blur And collapsed again to the floor He never got the chance to say he loved her
