The author's comments:
the third of a set of Three poems about my friend Lauren who was killed in a car accident. No one is ever prepared for someone to tell them a loved one is dead, it's always a shock.

My friend drove off the dock last year. I felt the exact same way when I got the call. I didn't want to believe it. Thanks for writing this.
