SAD BUT TRUE
Jenny was so happy about
the house they had found.
For once in her life, it
was on the right side of town.
She unpacked her things
with such great ease.
As she watched her new curtains,
blow in the breeze.

How wonderful it
was,
to have her own room.
School would be starting,
she'd have friends over soon.
There'd be sleep-overs, and
parties, she was so happy.
It's just the way she
wanted her life to be.

On the first day of
school,
everything went great.
She made new friends,
and even got a date!
She thought, "I want to be popular,
and I'm going to be,
Because I just got a date
with the star of the team!"

To be known in this
school,
you had to have a clout,
And dating this guy,
sure would help
her out.
There was only one
problem
stopping her fate.
Her parents had said
she was too young to date.

"Well I just won't
tell them
the entire truth.
They
won't know the difference;
what's
there to lose?"
Jenny asked to
stay
with her friends that
night.
Her parents frowned
but said, "All right."

Excited, she got
ready
for the big event.
But as
she rushed around
like she had no
sense,
She began to feel guilty
about all the lies,
But what's a pizza, a party,
and a moonlight ride?

Well the pizza was
good,
and the party was great,
But the moonlight ride,
would have
to wait.
For Jeff was half drunk
by this time.
But he kissed her and said
that he was just fine.

The room filled
with smoke,
and Jeff took a
puff.
Jenny couldn't believe
he
was smoking that stuff.
Now Jeff was
ready
to ride to the point.
But only after
he'd smoked another joint.

They jumped in the
car
for the moonlight ride,
Not
thinking that he was
too drunk to
drive.
They finally made it
to the point at last,
And Jeff started trying
to make a pass.

A pass is not
what
Jenny wanted at all
And by
a pass,
I don't mean playing football.
"Perhaps my parents were right,
maybe I am too young.
Boy, how could I ever,
ever be so dumb."

With all of her
might,
she pushed Jeff away.
"Please take me home,
I don't want
to stay."
Jeff cranked up the
engine
and floored the gas.
In a matter of seconds,
they were going too fast.

As Jeff drove
on
in a fit of wild anger,
Jenny
knew that her life
was in grave
danger.
She begged and pleaded
for him to slow down,
But he just drove faster
as they neared the town.

"Just let me get
home!
I'll confess that I lied.
I really went out
for a moonlight
ride."
Then all of a sudden,
she saw a white light.
"Oh God, Please help us",
she screamed with all her might!

She doesn't
remember
the force of impact.
Just then all of a sudden,
everything went black.
She felt
someone remove her
from the twisted
rubble,
And heard, "call an ambulance,
these kids are in trouble!

Voices she
heard...
a few words at best.
But she knew there were two cars
involved in the wreck.
Then wondered
to herself
if Jeff was all
right,
And if the people
in the other car was alive.

She awoke in the
hospital
to faces so sad.
"You've been in a wreck
and it looks
pretty bad."
These voices echoed
inside her head,
As they gently told her,
that Jeff was dead.

They said "Jenny,
we've done
all that we can do.
But it looks as if
we'll lose you
too."
"But the people in the other
car",
Jenny cried.
"We're sorry,
Jenny,
but they also died."

Jenny prayed,
"God,
forgive me for what I've
done.
I only wanted to have
just one night of fun."
"Tell those people's family,
I've made their lives dim,
And wish I could return
their families to them."

"Tell Mom and
Dad,
that i'm sorry I lied,
And
that it's my fault
so many have died.
Oh, nurse, won't you please
tell them that for me?"
The nurse just stood there,
and she never agreed.

She took Jenny's
hand
with tears in her eyes.
And
a few moments later,
Jenny died.
A man asked the nurse,
"Why didn't you do your best
To bid that girl
her one last request?"

She looked at the
man
with her eyes so sad.
"Because the people in the other
car,
were her mom, and her dad."
This story is sad,
and unpleasant
but true,
So young people take heed,
it could have been
you.
