Every 15 Minutes
The sound of the heart monitor steadily beeping,
A teen laying in a room barely alive,
Families in shambles praying to God,
A school laying in wait wondering why.
One dead three hanging on,
Every 15 minutes somebody dies,
Drinking and driving could have killed them all.
A little sister clueless,
Not understanding why she cant see her brother.
A late call in the middle of the night,
Made to and unexpecting parent,
The Grim Reaper has claimed another life.
Two dead, two hanging on.
The cuffs being put on one.
Every 15 minutes a family loses a member.
Every 15 minutes a school loses a student.
Every 15 minutes a someone loses a friend.
Every 15 minutes….
