Crushing of metal
The sound of breaking glass
Smell of hot engine oil
And the heat from burning gas
All mental control was lost
Head throbbing from emotional pain
Vision clouded with remorseful tears
As anger pulsed through swollen veins
Shaking hands violently shifted gears
As dangerous speeds were reached
As hurting words echoed in ears
And treacherous corners made tires screech
The road was slick with rain
And the body numb with heartaches pain
Unaware of red lights flashing
Ears deaf to the oncoming train
Taken from this world
In the proverbial blink of an eye
Without any justification
Or a clear reason why.
Was it all just for love
Or was it for a lie?
Was it due to selfishness and pity
Or an unwillingness to even try?
Was it fate or just a random event?
It’s too puzzling yet to decide
Because for all anyone really knows
It could have been an act
Of emotional suicide.
