Wreckage
I take a huge giant a** step
 And I realize I’ve gone too far
 I’ve gone over the edge.
 I’m gone
 All my mistakes have led me here
 Where you’ll never get me back.
 You try.
 I see you, though your fuzzy.
 I want to see you clearer.
 The smile on your lips
 The laugh in your voice
 The way your hair falls in your face.
 I’m blind.
 And you know it.
 You’re calling my name, but I can’t hear you. 
 I feel your hand grasp mine and for one wild moment I think I’m back…
 The sound returns to my ears.
 I hear your voice…so loud…. screaming…. you’re screaming…. for help.
 My vision clears and I see your face for the last time. 
 Tears are falling down your pink cheeks. One of them falls on my face, hot.  
 Your breath fogs in the cold winter air. 
 I hear sirens. 
 I notice our car on the side of the road, totaled. 
 I look back at you
 And remember your happy smiling face on our wedding. 
 The way we danced
 I held your hands
 In mine
 And now 
 Your holding my hands in yours
 And I’m happy this is how I end
 In your hands.
