Driving here in the middle of the niht, you would (incomplete sentence
Thinking (she) you have switched voice here...before you were speaking directly
subconciously know(n)
You have an unusual writin style, and I'm not sure if it's intentional. I think you could use some commas, and cut the run on sentences into two. You may want to check out a software program on line Grammarly...it can help with these issues.
The story is an interesting one with a dramatic ending but the grammar issues take away from that.

Comment from Paulpl52
This is a decent first attempt at fiction. You tell the story with passion and intrigue. There are a few spag issues though. The way you breath - 'breathe' or the way your breath. You were the one thing I can hold on to - 'could' hold on to. Yesterday is so clear its like your still there - you're still there. To say it did not matter is only to deny our love. It does matter. It means everything. - it 'did' matter; it 'meant' everything. (try to keep the same tense)
Now I stair at the completed puzzle - 'stare'
Now I stair at the completed puzzle and I still can't believe what I'm seeing. I trusted you,';'(semi colon) I believed in you. The convention that we were supposed to go to. You started a fight with me over the laundry and refused to go with me for the weekend. I called home Friday night, but there was no answer.
I was sick to my stomach with fear. I rented a car and drove the six hours
From Philadelphia to Suffolk Long Island. I was sure that it was my imagination.
I'm a bit confused here. Do you live in Philadelphia or Suffolk? Is the house in question yours of hers?
Just some issues that need resolving with tenses, punctuation and presentation for clarity. However I think this is good and I enjoyed reading it. Keep it up, blessings, Paul.

The intent is well prepared and delivered. The tense varies and there are a few spelling errors. However ,the poem is strong enough to capture the reader. With adjustments: compelling.

The tense was to throw the reader off. I hope its not a poem?
