Ashamed

It Wasn't
Her
Fault,
Nor, In all Honesty,
Was it his...
But still,
They
Were
Both
to
Blame.

He Drove
Recklessly,
and she did,
as well...
They never
met,
nor will they
Ever
Meet.
You may think they
Crashed
into eachother,
when they never crashed at all...

But they both did
Equal
Dirty Deeds,
of which they both
Should
Be
Ashamed.

You See,
it all started
When
They put the key
Into
the
Ignition.
For Him,
His beer was calling him.
For Her,
Her Fiance was calling her.
They both
Answered
their
calls.
She,
with the flip of her cell phone;
He,
With the pop of a bottle cap.
They turned the key... Then,
Drove.

Distracted,
neither could accurately drive
within
the
lines.
Recklessly,
they attempted to manuver their
Vehicles
to their
destinations.
Heartlessly
providing attention to
The Road.
Darkness was
Dropping as
Dreary and
Dreadful as
Death coming
Close to
Your Soul.
They tried to
Drive Careful,
They Tried to
Drive Safe;
But the Distractions
were making it
so that they
Just
Could
Not.

And It seems that his
Beer
made his eyesight all
Blurry.
It seems her Fiance was
Breaking the Love.
Screaming and Yelling
(and He, He was singing)
All of the eyes just
were
not
on
the
road.

And they both felt a
bump,
and
They stopped
Sudden
and
Startled.
Something abnormal
had
just
taken
Place.

It was not just a
Bump.
But... A
Bang;
Then a
Bump.

Afraid, they Both stepped out of
Their Cars
and peered around in
The
Dark.

They looked first
at the Bumper,
in a rush.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Although they
drove in two
Different
Places,
at two
Different
Times,
and
On Two
Different
Roads,
they both took the life
of
A
Sweet
Little
Girl
