A day has passed, a new path is clear.
Reflecting back I thought no fear.
Lies in trust are redeemed in time.
Scared Am I, I stand in line.
I wait for answers but rushed to leave.
tick tock tick tock time to grieve.
One more spirit has taken my road.
one more spirit to damn this road.
Crumpled and still i lie in wait.
broken and hurt i chose this fate.



-please don't drink and drive-

I like this as well.
But just like the other one it needs more description and a better voice.
Also for this one I don't really know if its about drinking and driving.
(Its a bit confusing to me, but maybe not to somebody else.)

I don't know, Leaka. Poetry isn't usually very explicit. Kipling's Gods of the Copy Book Headings comes to mind. I had to get professional help to understand what was going on.
