Love Poem: Like Bullets In the Rain

Like Bullets In the Rain

I see the dotted lines
     The never ending road
A long twisted ribbon of pain
     It leads me away from you

I see the dotted lines
     Like a paint by number artist
Trying desperately to cover
     Knowing it will never do

I hate the dotted lines
     They penetrate my head
Like bullets in the rain
     Distance can’t deny

I sign the dotted lines
     The summation of our love
Wiped away by pen and ink
     As we say goodbye
