I survived

by Crystal   Jul 28, 2008


It was fun to start, The night we had
Never knowing it would end so dark.
Taking you home I couldnt feel,
Something was wrong and
Perhaps this was real.

Who knows how this dream will end.
I dropped you off and,
Was headed back home again.
The road ahead I been on before,
A million times or more, I'm sure.

Roundin the turn I could see,
Head lights bright, Right infront of me.
They were not moving but only at me.
Didnt take me long to react, Knowin I did
I wish I could take it back.

Turn, Correct to turn again.
Into the ditch I could hear the wind.
A silent scream in the dead of night,
Woke no neighbors who were insight.
What a fright but I closed my eyes.

The world went dark and then there I was.
Outside my car, no cloud of dust.
A man I dont remember did call for me,
911 was on its way, headed to my scene.
My mother too, did run in joy.
I was ok that was for sure.

Hospital bound I found myself.
A needle had lodged itself,
Firmly in my arm and taped up tight.
God I hate needles, The ambluance...
What a horrible place.

The night drug on almost to day,
Before I was able to get away.
A concussion and whiplash to match my skin.
Which was bruised up, battered and beaten,
Once again.

All night long the endless talk.
So I pulled myself from the car...
So what? But I hadnt seen it yet.
The shape it was in.
How I pulled myself from it, reality couldnt bend.

18 years old and not a care in the world
Headin on home so I could sleep before work.
My boyfriend I saw just ten minutes before
Went the whole night without hearing a word.
But if he was with me, He would hear no more.

This horrible accident which I hesitate to tell,
Wasnt a nightmare I had, So listen well.
In the blink of an eye, I saw no more.
Thinkin I wouldnt but I did for sure
Wakin up to find, the nightmare begining.

A tragic fate of car did meet,
The ditch beside me or under my feet.
Its hard to explain the events that took place,
When I can't recall much to say anyways
Just fear was all I felt.

Alas, my worn and tattered friend.
That new car and I shall never pair again.
Scrap be its fate but atleast mine has time to take.
A lesson learned, Not knowing lesson though,
But atleast I can tell you, "I survived"

[I flipped my new 96 Ford Explorer July 25th, 2008. I dont remember much but... What I do isnt really enoguh to tell. >.< w.e I totalled it but managed to somehow pull myself from the truck not long after crashing. To see the car you would ask to how I got out as clean as I did, but I'm here to tell you my short tale. Whatever mate, lol]
