Would Have Been

I would have been sixteen today,

If that crash wouldn’t have happened

It would have been my special day.

That night of the crash,

That car was driving way too fast.

I bet that kid was drinking,

He probably didn’t know how much hurt he caused,

That night my life was lost.

That drunk driver didn’t die,

His life was spared,

Now look what he has to bear.

All the pain and heartache of that fateful night

Left one kid without a life.
