Have you ever driven
An important person
To the airport?
I drove my brother
And we did not say a word
On the way.
Its too easy to bottle up
When you want to say so much.
Maybe too much.
The ride home was louder
Than the ride there
My brain screaming:
He’s gone now
And you’ll never be able to say
What you felt in that moment
Of unbridled hoping
The distance really does
Make the heart grow.

The distance really does
Make the heart grow.
Driving through rain
On highway sounds
Of peeling wet paint
Off cement.
And light over
“I-70 West”
Goes dark.
