Let Me Poem by Jordan Si

You looked at me
from the passenger seat
with so much love in your eyes you started to speak
but my tears of sorrow
washed away your words
I knew you wanted to tell me then...
how much you loved me and
give your formal goodbye
until we meet again
in another space and
time but no words
needed to be spoken I just knew,
I just knew...
remember when
I called you up and then couldn't talk the only sound between us
the fatal ticking of the clock
I wanted to tell you then...
how sorry I was for all
I had done how badly
I wanted a do over but the words didn't come I'll never forget
the night that changed our lives forever darkness descended
the well ran dry no more tears
no more tears left to cry
I wanted to tell you then...
I know you are hurting I'm hurting too please don't do this we'll make it through but
no words came and I lost you
when I'm dead
and gone will these words
be all that are left of me
a written legacy my final ministry I will tell you then I will tell you then...
