I'm Trying My Cars, Goodbye
Dear vehicles I drive,
Why?
First, you were the oldest of them
You were sturdy and strong
You held through my inexperience
My unsureness
My fear
I don’t blame you for your falling
But why?
Second, you have lived long
You were cared for, renewed
You were old yet I trusted you
Your experience
If not mine
Passed from owners
I was the last
You could have gone farther
So why?
Third, you were brought in haste
You, I wasn’t sure
I cared for you all the same
Your presence was assuring
We were going on a trip together
One you wouldn’t forget
But you left before the chance
Why?
Fourth, you were the newest
No offense to the others
But I liked you the best
You were just what I wanted
Comfortable and sure
I imagined the future
You were there with me
If I didn’t notice
I’m sorry, but why?
Fifth, you were not mine
You belonged to another
You were their first
I cared for you anyway
You had held strong
When the fourth departed
You were there for me
And them
I blame myself for your fall
I could have done better
Even so, why?
Sixth, you are not here yet
I will love you like the others
Care for you my best
Bear with me
And my fears
Stay strong
We will succeed
I hope we will go places
I hope there is no why
I’m trying my cars,
Goodbye
