My Way by Holly A. Badolato

I heard a song on the radio
It made me think of you,
It made me wonder if you’re here,
It made me think of those crazy things you do.

I thought of that day,
When we crashed the car
I knew we shouldn’t have drank,
We didn’t go that far.

You asked him not to drive,
You asked me not to yell,
I didn’t listen to you
You were as clear as a bell

I wanted things my way,
I didn’t care for you,
There were 5 people in the car,
And not one of them had a clue

Collin died instantly,
You were rushed away,
You didn’t look so good,
But we thought that you were ok.

They told us that you needed checked
I didn’t want to leave his side,
You told me you would be ok
But as you know you lied

You didn’t want to hurt me
You loved me more than ever
You were my best friend,
And now your gone forever

You only wanted the best for me,
You didn’t want me to be sad,
You said that it would all be over soon
But that just made me mad

I came in to see you
On that cold September day
They told me that you were not here
Because things had to go my way.

You seem to have gone through alot in your life time. i am so sorry you had to go through this. i cant say i know exactly how you feel because i dont. but i can say i have felt that pain. my grandapa was hit head on by a drunk driver and he wasent wearing a seatbelt. his chest hit the steering wheel, killing him instantly, and the drunk is still alive today, in jail. one of thease days, i will visit him and let him read the poem i wrote for my grandpa. So i do feel your pain. im sorry but great poem!
