I went to a party Mom,

I remembered what you said.

You told me not to drink, Mom,

So I drank soda instead.



I really felt proud inside, Mom,

The way you said I would.

I didn't drink and drive, Mom,

Even though the others said I should.



I know I did the right thing, Mom,

I know you are always right.

Now the party is finally ending, Mom,

As everyone is driving out of sight.



As I got into my car, Mom,

I knew I'd get home in one piece.

Because of the way you raised me,

So responsible and sweet.



I started to drive away, Mom,

But as I pulled out into the road,

The other car didn't see me, Mom,

And hit me like a load.

As I lay there on the pavement, Mom,

I hear the policeman say,

"The other guy is drunk," Mom,

And now I'm the one who will pay.

I'm lying here dying, Mom....

I wish you'd get here soon.

How could this happen to me, Mom?

My life just burst like a balloon.



There is blood all around me, Mom,

And most of it is mine.

I hear the medic say, Mom,

I'll die in a short time.



I just wanted to tell you, Mom,

I swear I didn't drink.

It was the others, Mom.

The others didn't think.



He was probably at the same party as I.

The only difference is, he drank

And I will die.



Why do people drink, Mom?

It can ruin your whole life.

I'm feeling sharp pains now.

Pains just like a knife.



The guy who hit me is walking, Mom,

And I don't think it's fair.

I'm lying here dying

And all he can do is stare.



Tell my brother not to cry, Mom.

Tell Daddy to be brave.

And when I go to heaven, Mom,

Put "Daddy's Girl" on my grave.



Someone should have told him, Mom,

Not to drink and drive.

If only they had told him, Mom,

I would still be alive.



My breath is getting shorter, Mom.

I'm becoming very scared.

Please don't cry for me, Mom.

When I needed you, you were always there.



I have one last question, Mom.

Before I say good bye.

I didn't drink and drive,

So why am I the one to die?

very very touching
It often happens that innocents bear the loss while the guilty often scots free, this is life . And its also true that the poem touches only the non drunkers and not the drunkers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
