the night was dreary as the rain came down.
she said, "let's go for a ride away from town."
all through the ride, she had nothing to say.
it was almost as if something stood in her way.
then suddenly it came, out of the blue.
"my parents said i have to break up with you."
"i'm sorry," she said, "i can't pretend."
"my parents said our love must end."
she took off his ring and tears came from his eyes
at the same time, the fear of losing her began to rise.
with tears threatening to fall, he held them back.
as he unconsciously parked the car on the track.
he wrote something on a piece of paper
he held her hand and said, "read it later."
he always wished they would never part.
he said in a sad voice, "you just broke my heart."
she opened the door & walked out into the rain
thats when she saw the lights of the train.
realising too late what she had sighted,
with the blink of an eye, metal collided.
all she could remember was blood running red,
and someone saying, "i'm sorry, he's dead."
the ambulance sounded like an agonising cry,
then she read the paper, and it said, "without you i'd die..."
