Raindrops on the Windshield (Poem)

Raindrops on the Windshield

I can’t stop thinking about you.

I’ve tried and I’ve tried but to no avail.

I felt the sting and I know the pain.

I want to have you back.                                                                        

I need you in my arms once again.

Your touch is like silk

Your voice is made of honey.

I hate the emptiness that I feel inside.

The pain.

The anguish.

The need that I feel inside.

I lie awake at night in my bed thinking of you.

I cry in my sleep for I dream of you.

I hear your voice and my heart skips a beat.

I look to find you and realize that my heart is playing tricks on me.

You and I were flying high in the sky,

Nothing but open space ahead.

Now as I’m thinking

The tears are falling from my eyes.

The sound of my tears are drowned out by the rain outside.

As I drive on,

I stare into the darkness ahead.

The road seems never ending;

The wheels just keep spinning.

I see a flash of sparks

And feel a sudden stop.

I look around but all I see is black.

There is nobody around but yet, I still cry out.

The loneliness I feel in my heart grows and grows.

I want someone to be there with me through my sorrow

But nobody is around.

I cry out for love but my voice is quiet;

Quiet like the sound of raindrops on the windshield.
