Hello Mr. mustang, please don’t text while you drive
Unless of course you are ready to die
In that case please don’t do it here
When children and innocent people are near
For not everyone is prepared for their death
i want you in or out
there will be no grey area this time
it is black or white
heartbreak or heart light
Bright white lit screen on a small device
Shining in my eye, it's blinding
Yet I'm addicted
Addicted not to this device, but the person in the device
The person responding to me

Juliet 12:37 AM: ROMEO, WHY WONNE'TH THEE ANSWER MY TEXTS?!
Dear Mom,
I woke up today screaming and then realized it was just a nightmare.
I don’t know why you didn’t come to check on me but I know I will be okay.
Dear Mom,
My Head pops up
there's a loud BRRRING
no need to panic
My Alarm is doing his thing
i stretch my Arms
and i stretch them wide
yet, here i sit
with tired Eyes.
JK. u know i
didn't mean it... / i told u
he'll never say what--
Sarah did what at
the party? / ... / but why did Nate
Every time I press sendI feel relievedThat someone is thereWilling to talk toMe.
He read it at 9:30 PM. It's currently 9:42 PM and he hasn't even began to type. Read 9:30 PM. Read 9:30 PM. Read 9:30 PM. It replays in my head over and over.
poring over texts at 3am
wondering about what wasn't said
but more importantly the things you said with hidden, truer meanings
now you're asleep and it's too late to ask
--Drive Safe!
--I will!
The words are said without a thought
No meaning given to the promise
--I will!
Hands at 10 and 2
Shift to drive
Turn right toward school
--I will!
I don't know how it happened
How you dissapeared
One minute here
The next
Gone
You hit the person in front of you
We all assumed you didn't do it
We made up stories
It’s so easy to hide our abuses
Blame it all on life, we did not choose this.
So we make up excuses and choose not to see other's bruises
Life turns us all red, yellow, brown, white, and blue
There are moments in time when a sound hits your ear drums before your eyes reach the sight,
and moments in time when your nostrils fill up a familiar fragrance before you catch sight of the body of which it lies upon.
"A! Share the road!"
"B! Bump!"
"C! City Limit!"
"D! Detour!"
"E! Exit!"
"F! Freeway!"
"G! Gas!"
"H! Highway!"
"I! Interstate"
"J! Jen put that down!"
"K! Men at work!"
That's the only thing that people send me nowadays.
No real words, just emoticons (or what I like to call BULLSHIT)
No one has the balls to actually talk to me on the phone
and tell me how they feel
Text me Text me
No face that I can see.
We lost our communication
with a system that is obsolete.
Time to get rid of this thing!
Put Down the Gun
You know something completely safe
If trained and used right
Or something dangerous that might end a life
So put down the gun
You think I'm crazy
You're driving you say
"Hold the Phone!"
“Floo-flop” chimes the phone,
On the drive home.
What text could it be,
That you just have to see.
Kk teachers these days just, like,
seriously need to chill out!
i don't get what the heck all the fuss is about
They should
like
go smoke a joint or something
I had a friend, whose name was Sam
Sam was always smiling
He went driving one day, and then BAM!
The car was flying, flipping, and rolling
Sam had received a text on his phone
Don't text and drive
But that's for a car
Text and bike?
You already know
Bikes are useful to get around
So are skateboards
Which gets negative critic?
The one you don't hold on to
I feel something warm and wet sliding down my face
I want to sit up, but I seem to be stuck in place
I've never imagined such a blinding pain
The cool ground beneath me is keeping me somewhat sane
Quick!
Turn around!
Catch this kid,
Phone lit right up,
fingers dancing across the screen.
Come on!
Look!
He's playing Candy Crush,
But your back is turned.
Aching, screaming
Shortness of breath,
Begging, pleading
Wanting to cheat death
Bargains, promises
It will happen no more,
If only time froze
And would rewind to before.
Trust.
Defined as the assured reliance on the character, ability, or truth of someone or something.
Trust is Knowing that what you believe in, what you put your hope in
will not abandon you
Driving the car
got a text from a friends
asking "where you at"
I look down at my phone
the next the thing I knew
I hit a boy crossing the street
OH NO HE'S Dead
Now spending 50 years in jail
Life is dictated in Time's court
So fuck around all you want
Time will come and strip your selfishly selfless conceited joys
Gavel slammed to a sentence of eternal damnation
You to an eternity of never ending
RING! RING! Click!
A text came through
It reads "WHR R U?"
Not parked, moving motion
CRASH! SLAM! SCREECH! What's the commotion?
Three spins and a twist your wrapped around a pole
It won't happen to me, I said. That's a sad story, but it won't happen to me. I'm invincible. A teenager. My "whole life ahead of me". It won't happen to me. I'll do everything right. I promised. I won't drink and drive. I agreed.
Texting is fun; whether you use swipe or the android keyboard,
Texting is fun; when it’s someone you like or when you’re feeling bored,
Texting is crucial; when you text someone who is hurting,
My heart is racing. I'm waiting for you, by the door.
You told me you'll be quick.
The time is growing longer, i'm sick. 1 hour, 2 hours, 3 hours, 4.
Where are you, my love? Why haven't you walked through my door?
(poems go here)technology has taken over our lives
making all woman act like desperate housewives
put the phone down and close the twitter
normal conversation is becoming bitter
Death, murder, heartache, incarceration
The very things teens attempt to avoid
Texting and driving
The very thing that can lead to it all
Uncertain, Silent, Words
Crying, Pleading, Screaming unheard
Black, emotionless tries
Passed on unknowing Conversation dies
Heat flat lines
No beat. Fear shivers down spines
