Rachel, dear niece, you should not have had to pay
such a high price for for your friendship that day
Your only sin was judging too kind
and leaving the advice of your brother behind
how could you have known that your chosen path
would put you in a car with a psychopath?
what was it like, those terrifying few seconds
before the crash, and all wrongs reconed?
did you scream for her to stop, did you try to bail,
before you were killed, and she went to jail?
now you have left us, and now we all feel loss
where we once had a smile, all we have is a cross
Rachel, God forgives you, and we all do too
someday we will all come to be with you.

oh it's very personal. Rachel was killed last month in a car accident, and that's a fact.
