Wrong Direction

A head on collision
an on a dime decision.

Swerve to miss the most of it
a mutual crime they did commit.

Trapped by the weight
should have taken route eight.

Numbness spreads
innocent life in shreds

Help is on its way
No, please, you have to stay.

Breathing ceases
lives in pieces

"We did all that we could"
a line tragically misunderstood.
