The author's comments:
I was on facebook when I found out my friend was killed in a car accident. A friend had a status begging that something wasn't true. When did didn't answer me what was wrong, another friend messaged me, and Asked me if I knew what happened. I read that his status was R.I.P Lauren. and I hit the floor. This is the first poem I've written since she died, and I hope you enjoy it.
