Is the last thing you spoke
Before you opened your lighter
And started to smoke

Yes what harm could come
From getting one great high
Who knew you'd get in your car
And make it your time to die

But it wasn't just youself
Who had to die that night
You took three others with you
To join you on the final flight

So was it worth it
My love, was it that great
Or did you not realize
Until it was too late

I still remember your words
"What harm could it do?"
Well, my dear friend,
It did more harm than you knew [comments] => 10 [counter] => 226 [topic] => 66 [informant] => siren [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => drugabuse )

to answer the question, he was on drugs that night and crashed the car. It really made people in my town realize that there are risks involved with drugs.

Wow, I have said those exact words "what harm can it do?" and it almost happened to me. I was saved and I want to thank you for sharing and letting me remember so vividly. I am so sorry for your loss. You are an excellent poet and look forward to more poems by you. Great write very expressive, very true, very real.
