DUI Teen

by Juls   Mar 19, 2006


Sitting against the pavement
Rain pouring on my face
Rain that covers my tears
Silently saying sorry
to the ones that were hit

Cradling my head into my hands
I say to myself
"I shouldn't have gotten into the car"
"I shouldn't have taken those keys"
"I shouldn't have taken those drinks"

So many questions
Coming toward my way
Little did I know
the consequences that
were about to come next

Body Bags
One by one are filled
For I have killed
Alot more than just one
Just one innocent man

Eating away at my mind
I still look in the car
I look and see a baby
Just lying there
Upside down

Tears are now visible
No rain could hide them now
I have just killed a family of five
and leave a baby in a coma
Her life is ruined now

The sound of hand cuffs
Are tightened around my wrists
Metal chains wrap my ankles
"What was I thinking drinking like this"

I look and see
that I'm on a bridge
So high, like a bird
Soaring freely with
no worries to hold

I take my chance
Run like a plane
Take that leap off the bridge
I'll kill myself this time

Get other body bag out
For just throw me in a pile
of wastless dirt
Thats what I am, just other
DUI teenager

Who has killed God's
Such beautiful creation
That creation was man

    This was beautiful, it made me cry. My sister was killed by a drunk driver. People never realize how dumb it is to drink and drive until they hurt someone. Great message XXXXX
