Intoxicated Driving

An entire family is dead and I'm the one to blame. I drove while I was drunk and I'm filled with shame. I drank too much while I was in that bar. It was a big mistake when I drove my car. While I was driving, I hit a stationwagen head on. Because of me, those innocent people are gone. I killed those parents and their three kids. The pain is consuming me because of what I did. Those kids won't have a life because I cut them down. I am the one who deserves to be buried in the ground. When the cops arrived, I was placed under arrest. As I sit in this cell, I am miserable and depressed. I wish that this was a nightmare but sadly it's real. I learned the hard way that drinking and driving kills. (I DEDICATE THIS FICTIONAL POEM TO ALL OF THE INNOCENT PEOPLE WHO HAVE BEEN KILLED BY DRUNK DRIVERS.)
