School Bus Tragedy
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Im here to tell you a story.
Its sad and its true.
I met a girl along the way,
She looked a lot like you.
I would see her on the bus going to school,
Her eyes were o so blue.
Each time she would look my way ,
My heart would come unglued.
We became very close friends,
I saved my money and bought a ring.
As i put it on her finger,
My heart felt like it could sing.
It all came to an end one Friday afternoon,
The school bus blew a tire.
The driver lost controll of the bus,
It rolled and caught on fire.
Kids were screaming , let me out,
But the doors would not open.
As i looked around for my close friend,
She had fallen, her neck was broken.
It was on that day , my heart did break,
I had lost my closest friend.
Now i ride the bus alone,
Trying to comprehend.
As i look out the school bus window,
At times i can still see her blue eyes.
It makes me feel so sad inside,
We never got a chance, to even say good bye.
