gone to the big car lot in the sky

and so I good-bye to my peaceful place last night...my car. Oh dear, I almost jerked a tear. My beautiful beautiful car...her and I hold some of my greatest memories, some of my most painful memories, and some guilty pleasures. Everyone has a favourite place...mine was my car. When I was pissed off or upset or I needed to a place to cry where no one would know...I would go for a drive. I would drive and drive and drive, aimlessly, around this corner and that...sometime I ended up in palces that I had never seen before or places that I knew too well. She knew all of my deepest secrets that would never be released in the full version to the world...oh beautiful...that's what I named her near the end...she was getting old...slow and hestitant. I new the end was near, but I had this hope that she would just hold on...she was a strong one...not strong enough I suppose. For now, I'll have to reamin in grieving until I feel good and ready to move on...oh beautiful. I went last night to clean her out. I was told to leave the ownership and the key in the glove box...so I put the ownership in, but I put the key in my pocket just to keep in close while I cleaned her out...when I was done and went to put the key next to her birth certificate, the glove box got jammed...I know that was a sign from above...she didn't mean to let go...and so I lay the key within her beautiful cup holder, locked the door and said fairwell. I circled her once more, bowed my head and walked away...she off to her final resting place now. The love of my life and my absolute best friend has passed on, may she rest in peace...oh beautiful...it just won't be the same without you.
