The Red Antique
It all began you see,
next to that 80's model Jeep.
For years, we were meek.
Never did we speak.
Then one day you saw,
I didn't have it all.
Maybe you knew,
but how could you?
The red paint glistened,
everyday you listened.
I can still feel the cold leather,
the faint smell of smoke.
At least when you loved me,
it never really broke.
Now that antique is parked,
in a field of tall grass.
Same with our love,
which didn't really last.
