the death of an innocent

this is so sad.

Author: Unknown

I went to a party Mom,
I remembered what you said.
You told me not to drink, Mom
So I drank soda instead.

I really felt proud inside, Mom,
The way you said I would.
I didn't drink and drive, Mom,
Even though the others said I should.

I know I did the right thing, Mom,
I know you are always right.
Now the party is finally ending, Mom
As everyone is driving out of sight.

As I got into my car, Mom,
I knew I'd get home in one piece.
Because of the way you raised me,
So responsible and sweet.
I started to drive away, Mom,
But as I pulled out into the road,
The other car didn't see me, Mom,
And Hit me like a load.

As I lay there on the pavement, Mom,
I hear the policeman say,
"The other guy is drunk", Mom,
And now I'm the one who will pay.

I'm lying here dying,Mom,
I wish you'd get here soon.
How could this happen to me, Mom?
My life just burst like a Balloon.

There is blood all around me, Mom,
And most of it is mine.
I heard the medic say, Mom,
I'll die in a short time.

I just wanted to tell you ,Mom,
I swear I didn't drink.
It was the others, Mom.
The others didn't think.

He was probably at the same party as I.
The only difference is, He drank, And I will Die.

Why do people drink, Mom?
It can ruin your whole life.
I'm feeling sharp pains now.
Pains just like a knife.

The guy who hit me is walking,Mom,
And I didn't think it is fair.
I'm Lying here dying, Mom,
And all he can do is stare.

Tell my Brother to not cry, Mom,
Tell Daddy to be brave.
And when I go to heaven, Mom,
Put " Daddy's Girl" on my grave.

Someone should have told him, Mom,
Not to drink and drive.
If only they had told him, Mom,
I would still be alive.

My breath is getting shorter, Mom,
I'm becoming very scared.
Please don't cry for me, Mom,
When I needed you, you were always there.

I have one last question, Mom.
Before I say good bye.
I didn't drink and drive,
Why am I the one to Die?
I love you and good bye
