Wreckage
My car hydroplaned and crashed.
My heart was profoundly beating fast.
The sky poured out heavy raindrops
My face was stained red, from teardrops.
I was trapped and couldn't get out.
My thoughts raced then came doubt.
I was pinned in with no escape.
Beyond the heart, I wandered its fate.
Before the wreck, I saw you with another.
I don't care to know, my mind is befuddled.
You came, prying opened the wreckage door.
My soul has no will; to carry on anymore.
EMS trying to keep me alive.
Hurtful emotions, don't want to survive.
A sigh, a release of last breath.
Free, in a heavenly place; my heart shall rest.
