Hit and Run

I was trying to concentrate really hard,
as I was taking a huge Chemistry test.
Something inside of me made me shake,
but to finish to my fullest, I wasn't at my best.

I stop to hear what the principle had to say,
as she hestiates on the intercom.
"One of our fellow students died today."
So, please sign the card for her mom.

She was a wonderful child,
who was loved in many different ways.
With life long potential
and much more to say.

She cared for anyone with problems
and helped with every part.
She was a smart girl
who had a loyal heart.

She was walking out to get the mail
as a car sped around the curve.
Hit her and ran away,
who could have the nerve?

A memorial is set
for anyone to attend,
on the corner of main street
where her life came to an end.

We pray for her
and her family too.
Now we can say our last good-byes,
to the varsitycheerleader who helped us all through.
