It's all clear in my head
A few hours after all this happened

We had a fun day
Swimming at a beach
Laughing with my girlfriend and my cousins
Eating at a place that sucks for a dinner date
Though it sucked a lot less tonight

Driving home, close to midnight
A car veers off the road
A suddenly awake woman tries to get back in control
A terrified girlfriend and cousin scream

The car hit a few guard rails
The car spins around uncontrollably
Wild, flaily, out of action

Next thing I know, the car stopped
And all I see is grass on the window

Two people stopped to make sure we were okay
I stepped out, saw my perfect car, now ruined
Two flat wheels, the front bumper ripped off
The entire side and back of my car dented

All I could do is cry
All I could think about how close I came to death
How I saw my life flash before my eyes
How I was almost certain about my final seconds on Earth

And again, I cry, shooken up and scared from the events that occured on September 1st, 2012
I realize how short life really is
And that God or fate or destiny or whatever
Gave me, my girlfriend, my cousin, and my mom a second chance

A second chance to live
A second chance to do everything right
A second chance to not take this sick sacred thing called life for granted
