Dui
It was a dark, snowy night,
My blurry eyesight,
I'm just trying to get from point a to B
But I can barely see,
I can hardly walk, talk, stand,
My slurred speech,
I know I shouldn't be driving,
But nothing will happen to me...
Until all of a sudden my car swerves,
It ignites my nerves,
I jerk the wheel to avoid going off the road,
Little did I know,
A car was coming the other way,
I didn't have the time, to move my car,
I crash,
The airbag explodes,
Glass shatters, I stagger,
Out of the car, blood dripping,
From who knows where...
I hope they're okay, their car's crushed,
The front end mangled,
The drivers tangled,
In between the seats, I try to reach,
For them, but I collapse,
The pain rushes through my punctured
Lung,
I'm done...
I lie down, try to breathe,
But it hurts, sharp pains
Pierce my veins..
I can't move, hurt and cold, I can't speak,
I wish I would've listened when they preached,
I was dumb, believed in invincibility..
Now I'm dying, my future is bleak,
I close my eyes, try to regain peace,
Slowly I'm numbing, it's a welcomed ease,
I drift away, into my mind,
Never to wake, I've left it all behind..
