She's Never Coming Home Again

Free verse. Enjoy
:]]

I can't believe she was gone so fast
I had just walked through the door
Mom was crying uncontrollably
Dad didn't even know what to do

There first kid was gone
I was now an only child
My sister, my best friend
Gone forever

She was driving to her boyfriend's house
A drunk driver slammed her car
She went flying through the windshield
No one knows if her seat belt was on

When he heard the news
He couldn't stop crying
His true love was gone
This was the day he was going to ask her to be his wife

He said he spent over a thousand bucks for the ring
And now he couldn't even give it her
He promised to always keep
To keep the memory of his love

I overheard him in the hospital
He was talking to himself, I imagined
He was saying how he would never ever love again
He wouldn't even date

His heart belonged to her
Forever and always
He missed her too much to date
He couldn't even like another girl

I still couldn't believe it
She was the one who made me feel better
When she told me that grandpa was never coming back
She was too young to die

It'll take a while, but i'll have to learn to accept it
The fact that my first best friend is no longer alive
We'll all have to move on
And just keep her in our hearts

That's it
