Story Notes: Thanks to thenewbuzwuzz for betaing at short notice and for inspiring me to write fandom poetry in the first place!
Written for the Fall 2018 round of Seasonal Spuffy. A very dark take on the Road Trip theme.
This poem takes place shortly after "The Gift" and Spike's not in a good place. Content warning for suicidal ideation / attempt and car crash. It's dark, but not entirely without hope.
Conscrit always welcome!
