there was a girl called flirty shirly who was alot like me and you 'cause shopping and having fun was all she cared to do tommy girl and guess clothes was what she liked to wear i used to go to her house and help her dye her hair she tell me stories of all the guys she was dating at the time she'd giggle when she told about that special guy she liked to go to parties hang out real late smoking joints and taking shots all night with her date the party would end as parties do no one wanted to go home there was a place called 2 lovers point thats where she liked to go so off they'd ride in his fast car to end the night just right he'd take her home she'd sneak in before the morning light but on this night she never came home her parents and her had a fight so she drove with her guy to 2 lovers point as they always did but friends say they never made it they saw their car go off the ridge he only had a couple beers a couple tokes of weed he done this a million times knew every curve by heart could have driven this road with his eyes shut was all we ever heard well tonight this all changed he isn't here to tell the tale of driving his girlfriend off the ridge right over the rail...........

Very sad. This seems to happen all to often. Several years ago this same thing happend to some friends of mine. And a year later, again, only this time it was a car load of them and I was to be one of them but I chose to ride in another car. Not because I felt I would be in danger, but the other car was faster and better looking. Now what does that tell ya'! As a kid I thought I knew it all, but after seeing what happened to six of my friends in one night, reality slapped me in the face, HARD! Have fun but do it right! OK, I'll stop rambling on.  Thanks for sharing this JulieAnn. Great eye opener for many I hope! ~Sheri |

A very sensitive poem this, touched my heart, still shuddering when reading the last few lines.... Ah, the sadness, the perils of alcoholism and drugs, the road to hell.... Nicely written, JulieAnn, Regards, sudhir My heart is pounding, my stomach's inside out I'm feeling kind-a-shaky, my mind is full of doubt All I ever think about, is fearing fear itself, Wish I could unscrew my head and put it on the shelf Everything is twisted, everything is oh so tight, Don't know what I'm looking at, the lights are all too bright My brain's about to crumble, spill out on the floor Sweep 'em up. Throw 'em away, don't want 'em anymore Clouds race across the sky, day turns into night, Still there are the questions, no answers in sight Everything is twisted, everything is oh so tight, Starin' out the window, everything is just too bright Brain's about to crumble, spill out on the floor, Wish I could unscrew my head, and kick it out the door... You know I'm feeling kind-a....Strange You know I'm feeling kind-a....Strange ~ Strange ~ Joe Satriani (Flying in a Blue Dream) |
