My Best Friend was Killed because of Me

I loved my best friend.
Until she was killed because of me.
She was fifteen.
I was driving under the influence and ran into a tree.
I am seventeen.
I was driving to a party,
it started early for me and ended quickly.
Life starts soon.
And ends sooner.
I was looking at the moon.
A car was in my way,
the guy in front looked mean.
So I sped up but started to sway.
I gave him the finger,
and didn't linger.
So we went faster and boom.
Right into a tree.
My brother was in the back.
He was strapped in.
My best friend was in front.
She said it was black.
I was scared.
So I ran before the cops could come.
My brother told me not to run.
But I said " I WAS DRUNK!!"
And i kept on running.
The next morning,
my Mom came running.
She said your best friend was just killed yesterday!!!!
I thought to myself, I am such an idiot.
I didn't want to get caught.
And I thought she would be okay.
But i was wrong.
She wasn't okay.
She was dead.
I can't believe how stupid I was.
My Best Friend was Killed because of ME.
