Phone

Phone

He was buried and laid to rest today 
With long lines of cars in the cemetery
He will rest in peace and no longer feel the pain
From all the scars that took His life So early

Colorful flowers and wreaths on each side
Where his oak casket lay
as they lowered him down in the ground
She cries as her heart mourns his lost today

Family and friends comes to her 
Her eyes swollen from crying with grief 
Saying to her "how sorry they are 
Then they slowly walks away and leave

His mother was not there she was in the hospital
She collapse cause it was to much for her brain
she just couldn't bear the fact 
she was not going to see her only son again

His young happy life was taken away 
Taken away at such a very young age 
By a careless driver on her smart phone
Checking the status on her face book page

It all happen just last week 
She was in her home cloths 
In the kitchen making dinner 
Grill chicken and Mash potatoes

When she ran out of ketchup
So he buys the ketchup and
eating an ice cream cone 
Then while crossings the Street 
he was hit by a girl distracted on her phone

And when he did not return home
She just knew that some thing was wrong
When she got the call from the police
she just fell crying to the ground

Her father told her after the funeral
To come for a while back home to Trinidad 
But right now she’s so confuse
She lost the only love she ever had

he was her whole world
he was the love of her life
and she remembers the day 
he propose and her to be his wife

And not he's not longer here
To tell her everything will be alright
To dry her tears and hug her
To comfort her in the middle of the night

she know he would want her to be strong
And learn to be a survivor 
Now that all from her life was taken 
By the habits of a careless driver

She don't know now what she will do
She don't know if she feels anger or rage
All because of a careless driver
Checking he likes on her Facebook page

A message to all the careless drivers 
Who are driving while on the phone? 
Stop now before you’re responsible 
For Some one not reaching back home

Hello Kaz...

Great message...

There were 5 kids killed a few miles from their high school during graduation week in 2008...

The driver and passenger I believe we're the only seniors in the vehicle...
They were maybe five to six miles from the school...

Thank you for sharing!

Hugs...
