Where Are You?

It was dark, the road was wet where are you was all it read you check your phone like it’s no big deal not seeing the danger in the nearby field the deer runs out and your try to swerve not knowing it would soon get worse you lose control around the curve causing the oncoming car to swerve you both collide and hit the ditch screams of terror from nearby lips the lights flash and the sirens blare signaling the help that would soon be there you start to relax and close your eyes feeling the calmness deep inside metal is cut and your name is called but you cannot say anything at all now I sit here on this dreary day wishing this would all go away a tear escapes my eye as I quietly say goodbye so please please please make it known if you are driving leave your phone alone I love you guys so so much That’s why I will make a fuss Because I don’t want to lose another friend Over something as stupid as a text message Where are you was all it read And now my lifelong love is dead
