A Poem Do not Drink and Drive

I went to the party and remembered what you said.
You asked me not to drink alcohol.
I drank a Sprite. I felt proud of myself
You told me that I would feel that
I said to you that I should not drink and drive
Against what some friends told me. I made a healthy choice and your advice was correct,
As you always gives
When the party finally ended, people began to drive without being able to do so.
I went to my car trusting that I would return home in peace.
I never imagined what awaited me, Mom.
Now I'm lying in the street
and I hear the policeman say: "The kid that caused this accident was drunk."
Mom, his voice seems so distant.
My blood is spilled everywhere
and I'm trying with all my might not to cry.
I can hear the doctors say, "This girl is going to die."
I am sure that the young man, who ran at full speed, decided to drink and drive,
and now I have to die.
Why do people do this, Mom?.
Knowing that this is going to ruin many lives.
The pain is cutting me like a hundred knives.
Tell my sister not to cry
tell Daddy to be strong.
And when I go to heaven, I'll be watching for you all.
Someone should have taught that boy is wrong to drink and drive.
Maybe if his parents would have told him, I would not be dying now.
My breath is getting weaker, more and more.
Mom, these are my last moments
and I feel so desperate.
I wish I could hug Mother
while I'm lying here dying. I wish I could tell you how much I love you, Mom.
So .. I love ... y. .. goodbye ... "
