That Accident Last Summer

What was the 
Crash like for 
Them? 

Guilty of 
Flirting and 
Magic marker 
Signs, aren't 
We all? 

And too young to 
Die without an 
Explanation. 

And you were
Like the other
Boys, with a brightness
and excitement for 
Life. 

Racing, in an SUV
You found the sleep
that so many of us
Envy.
