Welcome to Gaia! :: View User's Journal | Gaia Journals

Screeching tires, shattering glass,
Twisting metal, fiberglass.
The scene is set it all goes black,
The curtain raised, the final act.
Sirens raging in the night
Sounds of horror gasps of fright.
Intense pain the smell of blood
Tearing eyes begin to flood.

They pull out bodies one by one
Whats going on? We were only having fun!
My friend is missing. What did i do?
Her belongings everywhere
In the road there lies her shoes.

A man is leaning over me and looks into my eyes
"What were you thinking, son
did you really think that you could drive?"
He pulls up the sheet still looking at me
"If you'd only called your mom or dad, you'd still be alive."

I start to scream i start to yell
But no one can hear me no one can tell
They put me in an ambulance they take me away
The doctor at the hospital exclaims "DOA!"

My father's in shock, my mothers in tears
She collapes in grief, overcomed by the fear.
They take me to this house and place me in this box.
I keep asking what is happening
but i cant make it stop

Everyone is crying, my family is so sad.
I wish someone would answer me
Im starting to get mad
My mother leans over and kissed me good-bye
My father pulls her away while shes screaming "WHY?"

They lower my body in to a dirt grave
It feels so cold I yell to be saved
Then I see an angel I begin to cry
Can you tell me what is happening?
And she tells me that I died.

I cant be dead im still so young
I want to do so many things
Like sing and dance and run
What about college or graduation day
What about a wedding please I want to stay.

The angels looks upon me with a saddenend voice
"It didnt have to end like this you knew you had a choice
Im sorry its too late now time I can't turn back.
Your life is finished that my son is a fact"

Why did this happen? I didn't want to die!
The angel embraces me and with her words she sighs
Son this is the concquence you paid to drink and drive.
I wish you made a better choice if you did you'd be alive.
It doesn't matter if you beg me or plead on bended knee
There is nothing I can do you have to come with me.

Looking at my family I say my last good bye.
I'm sorry I disappointed you dad.
Mommy please dont cry.
I didnt mean to hurt you or cause you pain.
I'm sorry all you're left with is a grave that bears my name.
I'm sorry all your dreams for me have all been ripped away
The plans for my future now buried in a grave.

"It was a stupid thing to do
I wish I could take it back.
But the curtain is being lowered now.
so ends my final act."
