into the car
without a care
with too many people
on each others laps
down the road
toward reklessness
into town
without seatbelts
with great speed
on the bridge
down the street
toward carelessness
into the party
without thought
with intentions of fun
on this night of traveling
down the road
toward negligence
into the wilderness
without care
with a bunch of teenagers
on the verge of death
down the path
toward silence
into the ditch
without thought
with loud screams
on the bridge again
down the hill
toward the water
into sleepiness
without knowing
with great fear
on the path
down deeper
toward death
into heaven
without fear
with great comfort
on the day they died
down below is sorrow
toward tomorrow
