They Will Never Get There

by eshan-bhatt

Ah, yes the sound of laughter 4 friends in a car going to a movie Summer is here, couldn't be happier But they will never get there A girl turns the music up Yelling and screaming in the rear The others all texting each other Even the one required to steer It's a classic example of a mistake Lack of attention by the driver in front Music so loud it could kill the ears The next scene will look like a stunt One vehicle crashes into another Collisions everywhere in the field The cars with their front ends inward Wounds that cannot be healed The police come by for a look CSI enter to examine the scene "If they had worn their seatbelts... ...they would've come out clean." They find the source of the crash It was still in her cold, limp hand "I can't believe this still happens." "I don't understand how it can." "We make sure they learn in school, how dangerous these things are" "Irresponsibility has consequences, especially when you are in a car" The lead squad car gets a call "Head on crash near exit 10" The CSI ask what transpired "4 friends. 2 cars. It happened again."
