That Drive Home. by ~Eleh:iconEleh:



Lightening flashed but the sun still shone.
Leaves skipped in pirouettes across the painted pavement
and I smiled and thought they danced so sweetly
with the static concertos crooning through my speakers.
The violins, they screamed a story; the violas, they lamented love,
and the cello sorrowed for all that’s been lost,
but we fell long before the leaves did.
And I couldn’t help but marvel (when they finally came)
at the tiny globes of water
as they broke into hundreds against the plane of my windshield.

Day storms are the saddest kind.
