Headlights

by Brittany   Aug 5, 2004


I remember it like it was yesterday,
all the pain and fear not yet passed away.
How your head crashed through the windshield,
and how you never quite healed.

All the glass and all the tears,
bringing upon my heaviest fears.
All the blood and all the guts,
pouring from your body and driving me nuts.

Thinking I might vomit, up on my knees,
begging "Please God, Please!"
Wishing that driver wasn't so dumb,
as everything I was feeling went numb.

There went your last breath
escaping your lungs,
as I held onto you, clutched, clung.
Screaming at you as if it was your fault,
come back to me, but this happening I could never halt.

And now you're gone,
that mistake he made was so wrong.
Now I've been missing you for a month,
all because that driver drove drunk.
