You cannot drive

With every angry word that you utter,

I can make a new house.

With every piece of metal that you throw,

I can make a new car.

The fall was deadly, not on her

mind, but her whole attitude.

Saying you cannot drive,

is a sentence to isolation.

My heart breaks to see her cry

out loud; to see her collapse

from once a strong pride.

How can I help her

when my own wheels are broken.

We cannot drive

but we walk with three legs

combined.
