Suicide Attempt
The collors go by
Flashing yellow, red and green
I suck in my breath
As I watch his death
It all happens so quickly
In the middle of the highway
And it was seen
By me
I quickly pulled over
For the guy on the motercycle
Just got hit by a rover
Truck
I cover my mouth
And jump to help
Sirens come from the south
And I just stand there
Not sure of what to do
How to save a life
I just knew
It would be to late
Traffic piles up behind me
And I wish I didn't have to see
The sight before me
The broken body on the ground
No longer making a sound
I start to cry, tears streaming down my face
The EMT comes by, quickening there pace
But it's too late, too late
It must have been fate
Only I saw what happened it the dark
A suicide attempt
And it hit the mark
