4-7-10

I woke up this morning, typical day. No worries and care free as I get dressed and drop two tabs for my adventure to school.
It was raining that day, it felt like a journey through the ocean, I've never felt so free.
I never made it to school, I got stuck on a park bench under a tree. Feeling the rain on my face, the blurry bliss of the green in the trees.
I've never felt so free.
2:30 came around and so did sobriety, as I headed over to a friends.
The sirens I heard in the distance, their howling seemed to be beckoning to my soul, calling me.
I knew something was wrong. As I ran toward the screams I saw her, a young love, my love.
Dead in the street, hit and run. I fell to my knees and screamed.
I was suppossed to meet her, but I was to care free.
I was suppossed to meet her, and now it will never be.
Lost for eternity
