Today’s poem is about someone stuck in traffic on a long drive home from work to his partner, it was inspired by the following 7 words (in blue) provided by my followers on twitter:

@jamiain (drowsy), @filigreegirl (engrave), @stnmoon (Sharing), @conradtheart (procrastination), @heatherpro (traffic), @BlazingMinds (juggler), @SurfCityJay (recycle)

Racing Home To You

Sitting drowsy behind the wheel
Stuck in this traffic jam for hours
No phone to call you ahead
You may think my tardiness
An act of procrastination
Or perhaps a failed balance
A poor juggler with my time
Yet the time that we will be sharing
Is of the utmost importance to me
I engrave the memory of your embrace
In my mind as I race home at a snails pace
Wishing I could recycle this lost time
And instead spend it with you
Instead of here
Lost in thought
Behind the wheel
Stuck in traffic
