Steed (04\14/05)

The scent of the car is a familiar one
left lingering when new-car-smell is gone
the smell of gasoline- so familiar
welcoming with open arms
the troubles of behind are now past
and he's driving away
------he's driving away
------------driving away
---------------------away
away from troubles in his life and
away from the people in his life
he runs to his car, a faithful steed
and spurs it on, through the red
to his death and his release.

Steed ©2005 by me.

//EDIT//

i changed 'to his death and release' to 'to his death and his release'. the syllables just didn't seem right...

I'd rather make mistakes than break.

Wow. I like this a lot. Especially this line:
QUOTE
the troubles of behind are now past
and he's driving away
------he's driving away
------------driving away
---------------------away
It really gives the affect of him leaving behind his troubles, and the emotion behind the poem is intriguing -- the fact that his only escape even means death.

Mucho love,

Alyson
