For Randall Courtney

So young, barely legal, but the begining was the end. I never thought I'd see this day, but it came quick as the wind. I wonder what went through the mind as the lights came down... Were your last breaths painful? Was your soul heaven bound? Why did he have to drink then get behind the wheel? Why didn't you just walk away? Is this nightmare real? So many questions never answered; dreams, that will never be fufilled. Thanks to what the alcohol did the night that you were killed.
