Angel

By Smart1982

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

I got a call from a friend the other night. She said you were at a party and had been in a fight. I got in the car to pick you up. Praying to God that you weren't drunk. The party was twenty minutes away. It started to lightning and thunder and the sky turned dark gray. The rain came down so hard, I could barely see. All I saw were the oncoming headlights in front of me. I was hoping I'd make it through alive. I'd pick you up and everything would be alright. There was a sharp turn coming so I slowed down. My eyes became more aware of things as I went around. I was a couple streets away from where you were supposed to be. Then all of a sudden a car hit me. I didn't die instantly, but I died real soon. Long enough for the police to tell me that the person in the other car was you. Before I died, I heard our friends crying and saying that you were drunk and mad and said you should be leaving. And without second thought, they gave you the keys. Now look what happened, you killed me. For many years before, our friendship was true. So, now I'm an Angel sent to watch over you. If you hadn't done what you did, I'd still be alive. So save someone else- Don't drink and drive. Written November 24th, 2001 © on Nov 24 2001 11:21 AM PST   0 • 1
