Not to blame

***********************

You ran a yellow light

He ran a red

no blame on you tonight

two women dead

 

The fear that you felt as

you waited to hear

You prayed as you knelt and

hoped comfort was near

 

The other is charged with it,

sure to go down.

But could you have changed a bit

if only you'd known.

ohhhhh... ouch.

 

mechanically - i like the way you set the rhythm for this, you effectively capture the combined feel of racing to catch the light and the cut-short impact.

you've definitely got a feeling of mixed fear and guilt contrasting legal blamelessness. That's a difficult burden to bear and tangled threads to sort out.

 

kind of makes you wish you could see a few seconds into the future. :(
