DRINKING AND DRIVING
Near to the door he paused to stand
as he took his class ring off her hand
all who were watching did not speak
as a silent tear ran down his cheek
and through his mind the memories ran
of the moments they walked
and ran in the sand (hand and hand)
but now her eyes were so terribly cold
for he would never again have her to hold
they watched in silence as he bent near
and whispered the words,
"I LOVE YOU" in her ear.
He touched her face and started to cry
as he put on his ring and wanted to die
and just then the wind began to blow
as they lowered her casket into the snow...
this is what happens to man alive.....
when friends let friends....
drink and drive.
Who Would Know
by Melissa Hensle
Who would know these kids were drunk
driving in our town?
I was coming out of the parking lot,
they hit me, I spun around.
All of a sudden my short life flashed
before my hurting eyes.
I started thinking about all the fun
I had with mom, dad, and the guys.
Then I hear the siren guy say there is no chance -
She will die, I also felt my spirit go up into the sky.
Why does my family have to suffer,
for something they didn't do?
I just pulled out of a parking lot and now my life is through.
I am only 19 years old now,
my family's life is going to shatter,
and the civil case will not matter.
The expense of my funeral will bring them down,
me lying in a casket,
my family and friends all on the ground.
Just because those kids thought they were cool,
drinking and driving in my town.
One Night�s Fun
by Ella Provan
Never paused to think,
Never thought to care,
Oblivious of the consequences,
Ignorantly unaware.
It�s just a few beers
And a bit of laugh,
Speeding for the fun of it,
�I�m in control - I won�t crash!�
No, you couldn�t see me then.
You sure as hell can�t see me now.
One night�s forgotten fun.
Why, what for, and how?
His car flew like an asteroid.
Car lights flashed by in beams.
In one split second he had killed his son.
Later I�d discover
He�d murdered my dreams.
�My God! I have,
I�ve lost control.
And now, Can�t think.
My life...it�s gone."
Silence.
Police cars light up
The night�s evil sky.
One dead, No two.
Onlookers gasp and cry.
Can�t think straight, now.
This can�t be real.
My life...what�s happened?
My legs I can�t feel.
Dad, please tell me
It isn�t true.
Take me home. Where�s my mum?
Where�s my sister, too?
Why do you look like that
With tears in your eyes?
You say the doctors can�t make me better,
And I know God can�t hear my cries.
Once I thought, I could choose my fate.
I wish to take it back. But, no, it�s too late.
Once I thought, I knew my path.
Once I thought, My happy life would last.
You�re not even here
To share some of our pain.
I cannot forgive you,
And you�re not here to blame
