\"Those who don\'t know history, are doomed to repeat it\"


I stare out the window,
With feelings running throughout my head.
I’m not sure what to think,
It’s almost as if I were dead.

A couple seconds, that’s all it took
For you to leave this place.
I don’t know who to go to
There’s not one familiar face.

I should’ve stopped that car
That drove you away that night.
But the last thing I wanted to do
Was start an unnecessary fight.

I sit here feeling guilty
Knowing you’re not coming back,
You know I’ll always love you,
That’s a known fact.

There’s a constant pain in my chest
That won’t go away
When people ask what’s wrong,
I never have anything to say.

It will take a long time
To get over this grief,
But when I do,
It’ll be a sigh of relief.

Just remember I miss you and love you
In every way,
And at some point in time,
I’ll see you again someday.

After seeing and hearing so many stories about teen accidents due to drinking and driving I wanted to write a poem about it.
