Car Wreck Swerving to avoid you on the hiway Memories come flooding back Screams and squealing tires Combine with my car hitting a telephone pole Glass shattering falling straight Skid marks, burning brake smell Me getting thrown around Wondering if my best friend is ok All combine for 60 seconds of terror And make me wish that the car wreck I dreamed Was still just a dream... Time flies? Say it not so, time stays we go. |

Actually, the writing of stuff has helped. My best friend and I both walked away from the crash... Basically, I swerved to the left to avoid someone on the hiway, my car skidded to the right (traveling sideways) we ended up in a parking lot, hit the embankment on the side, and got launched into the air into a telephone pole. Quite freaky really. The paramedics said they don't know how we walked away alive... Both axles on my car are broken, the two driver side doors are ruined, windows broken, too, the frame is basically bent and broke due to the impact of the pole.... All this and the car started up when I went and got my stuff out of it. Lucky???? I think so. And yes, the other guy was cited for failure to yield right of way, his car was unhurt, and my car will be replaced. Time flies? Say it not so, time stays we go. |

In moments like this dream and reality tend to get a little blured, can be hard at the time to distinguish what is indeed realality. I'm glad you were able to walk away. God grant me the serenity to accept the people I cannot change, the courage to change the one I can, and the wisdom to know it's me. ~Unknown |

Cuddlez~ Very thankful that you were unhurt. I'm sure you don't need to be reminded that vehicles can be replaced and lives cannot. Count your blessings, my dear. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |
