Prom Poem
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 felt really 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’re always right.
Now the party is finally ending, Mom
As everyone drives out of sight.
As I got in my car, Mom,
I knew I’d get home in one piece.
Because the way you raised me, Mom
So responsible and sweet.
I started to drive away, Mom
But as I pulled onto the road,
The other car didn't see me, Mom
And it hit me like a load.
As I lie here on the pavement, Mom
I hear policemen 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 come this happened to me, Mom?
My life burst like a balloon.
There is blood all around me, Mom
Most of it is mine.
I hear the paramedic say, I’ll be dead 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 didn't know where he was going, Mom
He was probably at the same party as I.
The only difference is, Mom
He drank and I will die.
Why to people drink, Mom?
It can ruin your whole life.
I’m feeling sharp pains now, Mom
Pains just like a knife.
The guy who hit me is walking, Mom
I don’t think it’s fair. I’m lying here dying, Mom
While all he can do is stare.
Tell my brother not to cry, Mom.
Tell Daddy to be brave.
And when I get to heaven, Mom,
Write “Daddy’s Girl” on my grave.
Someone should have told him, Mom
Not to drink and drive.
If only they’d have taken the time, Mom
I would still be alive.
My breath is getting shorter, Mom
I’m becoming very scared.
Please don’t cry for me, Mom
Because when I needed you, you were always there.
I have one last question, Mom
Before I say goodbye…
I didn’t drink ever, Mom
So why am I to die?
This is the end, Mom
I wish I could look you in the eye.
To say these final words, Mom
I love you and goodbye.

I hate drink drivers, I really do I've had friends that have done it and to be honest if anyone I knew died as a result of being incapacitated at the wheel of a car they deserved it.
