Fateful Night(Etheree)

by Jad   Jul 30, 2009


Gone
in death,
is my lost
friend long ago.
Who followed his way,
And is now in his grave.
For he chose to go with his
drunk friends on a fun drive through town,
But they crashed into a semi truck,
And there they found their death waiting for them.

    The Ethree is a wonderful form. What a very sad piece you have penned. How sad to lose a friend in this way.

    Unfortunetly this happens all too often.. drunk driving can turn fatal, and does too many times. I'm sorry if this is personal, its never easy to lose friends. A great write though, and hopefully brings through the message to not drink and drive; good job. =J
