While I drove, I would text.
I wasn/'/t prepared for what happened next.
Last month, I lost control of my car and hit a boy.
Because of my ignorance, a life was destroyed.
Just like the coward I am, I decided to run.
I was so stupid that I didn/'/t even call 911.
The police are looking for me every day and I have to look over my shoulders.
Instead of running, I should/'/ve faced that boy/'/s mother, I should/'/ve told her.
I/'/m so ashamed and a big part of me wants to turn myself in.
But prison frightens me and I/'/m drowning my sorrow in gin.
I destroyed an innocent boy who was still experiencing youth.
The cops just busted down my door, they/'/ve discovered the truth.
They/'/re slapping the handcuffs on me and in a little while, they/'/ll put me in jail.
I/'/m glad that it/'/s over because the guilt and misery has made my life a living hell.

You hear about stuff like this quite frequently nowadays.
But the people that commit the crime, the pain, guilt and
misery that they feel is only a fraction of what the family
member of the victim are experiencing.
Good write my friend.
