No Tears Today

In a stormy night in the Island of the Gods, he knew he lost,
He went out speeding up the gas to pass his anger,
The fear was released with the accelerator,
His wounds mount with every brake press,
Those trapped tears leak with the wind,
He drives on a slippery road, every time he feels the risk, 
He reminds himself of his beloved family back home waiting for a phone call to cheer them up, and the anger he would face in all cases when he gets back home, 
No escape whether he is back in one or few pieces, she won’t let it pass, but he knows he has to be back to her in the best possible shape, 
So from time to time, she can shatter him the way she wants.
