If she had been wearing her seat beltA Poem by Randy JohnsonEVEN THOUGH THIS IS A FICTIONAL POEM, EVERYBODY SHOULD WEAR SEAT BELTS.My daughter might have had a chance if she'd been wearing her seat belt. Now I'm miserable and my life is worthless because of the blow I was dealt. While I was driving her to Dollywood, I hit a truck head on. She was only six years old and it's my fault that she's gone. She'd still be alive if I had made her wear her seat belt like I should've. A few people have said that the seat belt might not have saved her but I know it would've. My In-laws hate me but they don't hate me half as much as I hate myself. My wife has stood by my side but I would've deserved it if she had left. My daughter should've died of old age but she didn't even make it to the age of ten. Some day in the future I might be able to forgive myself but I don't know when. © 2014 Randy Johnson |
