Love Poem: Hit and Run

Hit and Run

It pours out of her 
A river flowing into a sea
This isn't salt mixing with water
This is liquid mixed with cement 
And it turns from pouring to drips

Thick and firm with time
Time.........this is time's fault 
If it hadn't taken long to show her the truth 
Truth..........this is truth's fault 
If it hadn't taken long to reveal itself 

Me.........this is my fault 
I was busy living with a clouded mind 
So optimistic always looking on the bright side
Why isn't there any bright side now?

Darkness........The absence of light
There is no sun, no light, no bright side
As my blood kiss the cement 
They become more acquainted

Life slip from my grasps
And I take my final breath 
My skin loses color 
I whisper the words I was to fearful to say 
"I do and I love you"
Then I awake
