Uber Nightmare!

Thanks to Geoff at Silvertip films for shooting this for me! 7 minutes away It’s over You turn your face to the window Ask me if I have any questions That may bring me some closure 6 minutes away I pause What is there left to ask You’ve already called me on my insecurities And my flaws 5 minutes away silent no words to change Your already made up mind Still silent 4 minutes away You sigh place the stray hair behind my ear with pity, kiss me on the forehead Wipe the tear from my eye 3 minutes away Savouring I take a deep breath, inhaling Remind my self to remember your smell Your everything 2 minutes away Standing You pull me to my feet My knees buckling with defeat Reality crash landing 1 minute away the goodbye You hug me tight Attempting to make the broken pieces right You cry Your driver has now arrived You freeze I kiss your lips one more time Break the etiquette to break my mind I leave.

We are still grappling with how art that is so sad and gut-wrenching can also be so beautiful. One of life’s mysteries. Thoroughly enjoyed this poem Janet, thank you for sharing. 🙂🌹

Just imagine being the poor Uber driver.

Are you a singer/songwriter who writes poems or a poet that writes and sings songs? Either way, they capture your personality. And, don't worry. life will always throw surprises, good or bad, and that is what makes us the way we are. May it never change

I didn't realize you'd taken up writing horror, Janet 😆

I'm sure it has happened to someone. 😳

I figured out I was just a side piece to this girl I really liked, while we were out on the town.... then i drove her home.... it was a forty minute drive.... hands down my most awkward drive ever. lol

Sad, beautiful, emotional.... Love the double meaning in the title as well... Uber Brilliant

I really like the juxtaposition of the countdown to the Uber with the end of the relationship. Your words really captured the sadness of a breakup with the awkwardness of leaving and not able to leave.

Some absolute fool had the audacity to dump you?! I find that unfathomable!!!
