Near to the door <br />he paused to stand <br />as he took his class ring <br />off her hand <br />all who were watching <br />did not speak as a silent tear <br />ran down his cheek <br />and through his mind <br />the memories ran <br />of the moments they walked <br />and ran in the sand hand and hand <br />but now her eyes were so terrible cold <br />for he would never again <br />have her to hold <br />they watched in silence <br />as he bent near <br />and whispered the words.. <br />'I LOVE YOU' in her ear <br />he touched her face and started to cry <br />as he put on his ring and wanted to die <br />and just then the wind began to blow <br />as they lowered her casket <br />into the snow.... <br />this is what happens <br />to man alive..... <br />when friends let friends.... <br />drink and drive.<br /><br />Erin Stack<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/what-happens-when-friends-let-friends-drink-and/
