Unlit Road

Unable to hold my quench after the first sip,
the taste of your love on my lips made me swerve

on this road I thought I knew well-
its curves, pot holes, and humps-

unafraid of a little hassle on the wheel,
foot on break pedal, unwavering: I know when to stop.

Tipsy, euphoric and red-faced yet my vision
is still clear, speech still smooth.

While car in full speed,  you disappeared
like a headlight failing on an unlit road-
