An Old Friend...

That song came on the radio;
The one that always make me
Remember you.
And I wonder again,
If I'd been in the car...
If I'd gone that day...
Would you still have
Been playing around?
Would you still have
Been going so fast?
Or would you
Have slowed down?
Not wanting to scare me?
Would you have been
Watching the road
Because you cared more about your friends
Than you ever did yourself?
Everyone else says
It's just lucky I wasn't with you.
But I know better...
