you and i
driving down the highway
i swear we could fly
with you behind the wheel
the pictures littered the car
like anxious petals fallen too soon
desperate pleads for a love
i could not express to you
steady hands on the wheel
you whisked me away
to a little burger place on the interstate
where for a moment we escaped
the rush of it all
the pain of it all
when i felt safe
to fall into you
eyes glued to the dot
amongst trees and cars
yearning to keep this spot
that, only briefly, we called ours
