The Accident

By shorty

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

You put your arms around me,and held me close to you.I wanted to cry to my hearts content,but I knew it wouldn't help you. One simple car accident can do so much,it can paralyze, it can hurt, it can bruise, it can scar.Why'd this have to happen? Four good friends of mine.I know you're all good kids,for your seatbelts saved your lives. I'm thankful you're all ok, even though the scars may burn,I'm thankful Myles is still alive, although therapys like a thorn.The pain will eventually lessen.The scars will slowly desolve.But the thought in you're mind of how it happened, now that will never die.
