the cold night v2



The night was cold
So cold I could feel it on my bones but I was feeling giddy
Tonight was the night, I was certain
I would do it on the long stretch of road in-between towns
The road seemed to go on forever but that isn’t necessary a bad thing
No one would disturb us out here
His friends made him drink so much that night
It looks like I was truly blessed , it makes this so much easier
The way he sat there looking into the night, I was speechless
The way he hugged it seemed like he wouldn’t let go but after a while he did
His face was so soft. He looked….. peaceful, yeah that would be the best word to describe him
His friends did not look that peaceful though, I think the word to describe them would have been…hmmm shocked…. No, hmm terrified, no…. mortified, yeah that sounds about right
It looks like I won’t be bored for a while
Tonight truly was a blessing

The cold night



The night was cold
So cold I could feel it on my bones
The road seemed to go on forever but that isn’t necessary a bad thing
It could be a blessing like in this case
If only he didn’t have those beers at the pub.
If only he hadn’t drank those shots,
If only he didn’t try to take the back way home
If only he had applied the brakes before hitting the tree.
Well if he did he would have noticed me sitting in bushes waiting
At least he is at peace now
It’s not as fun when they rest in peace
Oh well, at least his lady friend is only injured.
Looks like tonight is a blessing\

This is only a first draft
