[hometext] => I'm sure many of you have seen this poem before because it is in many e-mails. I would just like everyone to know that my sister wrote this when she was in eighth grade for a class. I'm telling you this because someone else tried to take credit for it.
[bodytext] => I went to a party mom I remembered what you said You told me not to drink So I drank a coke instead I felt real proud inside mom The way you said I would I didn’t drink Even though my friends said I should I know I did the right thing mom I know you’re always right Now the party is finally ending As everyone drove out of sight As I got inside my car mom I knew I’d get home in one piece Because of the way you made me So responsible and sweet I started to drive away mom As I pulled onto the road The other car didn’t see me It hit me like a load As I lay here on the pavement mom I hear the policeman say The other man was drunk And now I have to pay I’m lying here dying mom I wish you’d get here soon How come this happened to me My life burst like a balloon There is blood all around me mom Most of it is mine I hear the parametic say I’ll die in a very short time I just wanted to tell you mom I swear I didn’t drink It was the others The others didn’t think He didn’t know where he was going mom 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 Tell my brother not to cry mom Tell daddy to be brave When i’m up in heaven Write daddy’s baby on my grave Someone should have told him mom Not to drink and drive If only they had taken the time I would still be alive My breath is getting shorter mom I’m becoming very scared Please don’t cry for me Because when I needed you, you were always there I have one last question mom Before I say goodbye I didn’t drink So why am I to die? This is the end mom I wish I could look you in the eye To say these final words "I LOVE YOU AND GOODBYE" [comments] => 2 [counter] => 172 [topic] => 48 [informant] => Seans_Girl [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => EmotionalPoetry )

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
