Fan Fiction ❯ Angel ❯ Death to an Innocent ( Chapter 19 )

Death to an Innocent

This was originally sent out by MADD. I got it in a email. If any of you out there receive that email, sign it and please send it on. I lost a very good friend to drunk driving and I want to help everyone understand the hurt.



I went to a party, Mom
And remembered what you said.
You told me not to drink, Mom
So I had a Sprite instead.

I felt really proud, Mom
The way you said I would,
That I didn't drink and drive, Mom
Though some friends said I should.

I made a healthy choice, Mom
And your advice to me was right
The party's finally over, Mom
Kids drive out of sight.

I got into my car, Mom
Sure to get home in one piece,
I never knew what was coming, Mom
Something I expected least.

Now I'm lying on the pavement,
And I hear the policeman say,
The kid that caused this wreck was drunk,
Mom, his voice seems far away.

My own blood's all around me, Mom
As I try hard not to cry.
I can hear the paramedic say, Mom
This girl is going to die.

I'm sure the guy had no idea, Mom
While he was flying high,
Because he chose to drink and drive, Mom
Now I would have to die.

So why do people do it, Mom
knowing that it ruins lives?
And now the pain is cutting me, Mom
Like a hundred stabbing knives.

Tell sister not to be afraid, Mom
Tell daddy to be brave,
And when I go to heaven, Mom
Put Daddy's Angel on my grave.

Someone should have taught him, Mom
that it's wrong to drink and drive.
Maybe if his parents had, Mom
I'd still be alive.

My breath is getting shorter, Mom
I'm getting really scared.
These are my final moments, Mom
and I'm so unprepared.

I wish that you could hold me, Mom,
As I lie here and die.
I wish I could say, "I love you, Mom!"
So I love you and good-bye.


~In memory of my best friend, always and forever. We love you, Shishi.~
