When Will People Learn Poem by jamf15 2011

When Will People Learn



People say not to drink and drive,
But, people still do it, but why?
Knowing it ruins peoples lives
I guess he did not know
While he was flying high that I would
Have to die


Im laying here thinking
About my life and what could have been
And what has been
I wish that I saw this coming
My breathing is getting short now
It's getting harder to breathe


What is a human life worth to you?
It is funny how in a split second how
How fast your life can change
Someone should have told him that it's
Wrong to drink and drive
Maybe if someone did that, maybe I would still be alive.



When will people learn?
How many souls do people have to ruin
Before they get the message though their heads that its wrong
To drink and drive
If you could do it, all over again would you drink and drive?
Think about it, knowing that you could kill someone next time and
Think before you act.


People say not to drink and drive
But people still do it, but why?
Knowing it ruins peoples lives
I guess he did not know
While he was flying high, that I would
Have to die
