Mommy, Mommy,

where could she be?

She should be sitting,

right here with me.

~

All Daddy does,

is cry all day long.

Locked in his room,

He won't tell me what's wrong.

~

Where have you gone Mommy?

Cause I miss you so.

You said you'd always be here,

but where did you go?

~

All I remember,

is you got in your car.

But you didn't come back,

and Daddy says you went far.

~

So far away,

that we can't even visit.

He said you went to Heaven,

but Mommy where is it?

~

I want to see you Mommy.

Want you to wrap me in your love.

But Daddy said you can't cause you're an Angel,

resting on the clouds above.

~

A bad man took you away Mommy.

Daddy told me so,

and the bad man drank to much,

thought he could drive, but no.

~

Why did you die Mommy?

Why couldn't you stay?

Daddy said I wouldn't understand now,

but I will someday.

~

I want to understand now Mommy.

I want you here with me.

But Daddy says a memory,

is all that you can be.

~

Today we looked at pictures Mommy,

and it made Daddy smile.

I asked him when I'll see you again,

and he said not for a while.

~

So I guess I'll just wait,

Daddy said that's what to do.

I hope you hear me Mommy,

when I say that I love you.

~

This message was sent,

from a girl just five.

A sad, yet true reminder,

not to drink and drive.

~

This man drank too much,

and got into his car.

He drove out of the parking lot,

but didn't get far.

~

He pulled into the intersection,

and hit her fast head on.

But when the paramedics got there,

she was already gone.

~

The sirens sang their melodies,

of the tragic events that night.

And the drunken man had no worries,

and the ambulance pulled out of sight.

~

He had not a bruise,

nor scratch, nor scar.

But didn't realize he took a life,

as he pulled away from the bar.

~

Not just a life,

but a little girls mother.

And also the life of

this little girl's unborn brother.

~

A mother, a sister,

a daughter, a wife.

A brother, a son,

an un-lived life.

~

That's what was taken,

since he chose to drink and drive.

Maybe if he hadn't,

they'd still be alive.

~

Life in prison,

is what he'll get.

And this incident is one,

that he'll never forget.

~

For pain and sorrow,

will fill his heart.

Knowing that this preventable act,

tore a family apart.

~

For the people who read this,

no matter how much you thrive,

put down the keys,

and don't drink and drive.
