Getting a call,
At an untimely hour,
Of untimely news,
Causing you to cower.
Receiving news,
Of an 'accident', so called,
Sitting, listening, waiting,
Sat, listened, bawled.
A loved one involved,
A head on crash,
All hopes and wishes,
Put aside to trash.
News, not the good kind,
Not good at all,
And this was entirely thanks,
To that untimely call.

Recently I found out my Aunt was in a car accident. She will be fine and make a full recovery, but I decided to heighten my emotions and write something from the perspective of a person who lost a loved one in a crash. Who lost everything in the blink of an eye. In my case, I'm lucky my Aunt isn't encased in wood, but for anyone who has lost someone, I'm sorry.
