Tragic Love Poem by Brendon Secrist

A night at a bar,
Depressed and out of hope.
I cannot smile or laugh,
Because I lost you.

We dated for so long,
And fell apart,
Because of one little fight.
Now I'm lost in a glass of beer.

They say drinking and driving doesn't mix.
I learned from first hand experience.
I didn't walk away,
I didn't survive.

I lost control,
And missed the turn.
Only one question came to my mind.
As my life flashed before my eyes.

Did you,
And do you still love me?
My phone beeped,
As I missed my turn.

My car hit a tree,
And my neck snapped.
As my last few breaths came,
My phone's screen lit up.

It was a text message,
That answered my question.
I hit 'View' as my last breath left.
It said ' I love you and I'll see you in the morning'.

I'm sorry I won't be there,
To hold your hand,
And wipe your tears,
From your eyes.
But only one thing is for sure,
I died with a smile on my face.
