Painful Memory

I never will forget the day my world came crashing down It happened out on highway 6 just right outside of town My wife and I were headed home after dinner and a show When a truck who crossed the center line gave me nowhere else to go When I hit the ditch doing 65 all I heard was Tammy scream Everything around me slowed like I'd stepped into a dream We must have rolled at least 6 times though I'm sure that it was more Then I asked my wife if she was hurt as I opened up my door If she answered me I couldn't hear for the ringing in my head So I came around to check on her and realized she was dead It'll be a year tomorrow when my life came to an end I not only lost my wife that day but also my best friend But tonight we'll be as one again of this I have no doubt As I place her picture on my chest and the barrel in my mouth My final thoughts upon this earth were of the only love I found Because I never could forget the day my world came crashing down 6/21/2001
