Dui

The car The party All runs through my head The stupid decision to drive Instead of asking a friend The tears keep coming Although I wish to stop The stupid decision To drive and not walk. The road where you wrecked Was close at heart Sitting there we wished on stars Laughed out loud in the dark. All the memories we shared Could never compare to The loved one we lost there. Shattered glass lay on the side of the road Where you wrecked that horrible day Now a beautiful cross gives way Memories we lost Memories we shared Give way to you in Heaven somewhere.

Sad. My son was lucky, but the DUI cost him his job, his house, his car, his truck, his wife (divorce). Everything he ever owned and he still does it. God Bless. Vince

Very sad, but written so beautifully..you poured out your soul expressing the pain and hurt over losing a loved one. I feel your emotions so strongly here, it's devastating to lose a loved one, in any way. I pray that you and yours will find some peace one day soon. Stay Strong, pray and lean on the Lord..He will give you strength and that peace that surpasses anything..God Bless *Tyesha
