I Wish I'd Been There

I Wish I’d been there the night you called and I wasn’t home.

I Wish I’d been there the next morning when you decided to celebrate Memorial Day
With Vodka.

I Wish I’d been there the moment you wanted that adrenaline rush.

I Wish I’d been there the when you got in that damn car drunk.

I Wish I’d been there when you laughed too hard and lost control of the stupid wheel.

I Wish I’d been there when you crashed in that huge tree with nothing left in your heart.

I Wish I’d been there when they drove you to the hospital.

I Wish I’d been there when the blood in your brain took over your precious life.

I Wish I’d been there even when they pronounced you dead.

I Just Wish I’d been there more than I was.

  1. Very good poem. Really brings the emotion forward, especially when you look into the man's name.

    Good job.
