Silence,
The night is falling
Darkness envelopes the world
Stars sparkle like beacons in the sky
A sudden noise
Ripping and tearing of metal
Screams of the victims
They had been at a party
Drinking and having fun
Curfew drawing close.
Panic,
They hurry to get home
The driver was not fit
He never saw the other car
A mother and her child
Returning from a lare movie.
The night is filled with the sound of sirens
The mother and child are dead
In an odd twist of fate
The only one alive is the drunken driver
He will always live with the guilt.
One drink changed his life forever.
