Driving Away From You


A business trip takes me from you
Putting togetherness on hold

Before daybreak I drive in moonbeam silence
Every crossing street a family chapter

Block after block holds parts of our lives
Compounding my absolute loneliness

City lights blind any recall of your smile
Amid doubts of seeing such beauty again

Within airport thousands something familiar
In half the faces so much like yours

I ponder the why of my going
Taking away the you who completes the me


2007 F William Broome

Next to a Dear John one, going away is the most heart breaking movement we ever will be doing.
The poems is full of "why's?" without been written in it.
A classic.

I sense a little bittersweet remembrance, yet so sensitively written. Enjoyed.

Be safe,
