Do You Know?

Do you know what it is like to almost have life ripped away from you? Lose your lasting breath in a heartbeat by an unknown piece of carelessness, a 24 year old boy child in a hurry to god knows what on an icey street in front of your own house? You can drive as slowly as you want; watching behind waiting for others to pass a s careful as you please but it won't help it won't help an unknown assailant soaring out of the darkness in a tiny grey piece of crap called a Kia no he couldn't wait he couldn't wait for me to turn he had to come up on the right side between the car and the curb to pass me only he misjudged there wasn't room there wasn't room and he slammed into a tree. God if only he died then he'd know; precious life. how precious is life and what for what to run and ride in the blink of an eye it could have been over for everyone for all of us and for what waste, waste. waste.
