Blue SUV's

They don't haunt my dreams,
     I see them every day.
Driving by, nice and shiny.
     Most especially, I am looking,
To see just one, dark blue SUV.

     Mitsubishi Endeavor, to be
Precise. One specifically, the one
     I never see. Nope not me.

I see all the rest, from dawn til'
    Dusk. I never knew before,
There were so many blue SUV's.
    Toyota, Ford, and Chevy too.
All of them, it seems to me, are
    Also blue. Oh, I know that
There are other colors, but since
     You left, they slip right by
Me, and disappear in the blink
     Of an eye. And again I see
One, just like that, cruising by.

     A blue SUV, I know for sure,
That it's not the one, and yet I can't
     Help it, when my heart, just
For a second, is quietly stunned.
    There is even one around, right
Make but not model, as I was told
    So long ago, before it all unraveled.
Even if twas',  it's who is not
    Driving it that is the matter.
