Car Crash

My heart is a car that has gone off the road.

Smashed windows, broken doors, blown engine.

Disaster and distress for everyone involved,

yet so many go byers with only a small thought.

 

You are the ambulance coming to the scene.

Make sure the injured make it out alive.

Though the injured didn't survive,

And the survivor is mentally injured.

Never going to be the same.

 

Confused as to why she did it.

Why she jumped in front of the car, just to watch it go up in flames.

She knew he'd never hit her,

even with the perfect opportunity.
