Lost
May 6, 2009
A fair haired mother
Breathed her final breath,
As ending words
Of love and death
Escaped her lips,
And flew up to rest
She let her heart stay
In trust of family
To look after,
A daughter alone,
From one drinker
Who drove the night away
The car roared at its fastest,
A wild untamed beast
But it only took a moment
For everything to stop,
100 miles and hour
Suddenly slid
To a standstill on the street
The red and blue lights flashing,
Like a detective
Looking over what was done
The only one to blame,
A boy of twenty one
