What do you think?

It was two weeks


after the day she turned 18


all dressed in white,


going to the church that night


She had his box of letters


in the passenger seat


six pins and his shoe


something borrowed


something blue


and when the church doors opened up wide


she put her veil down


trying to hide the tears


oh she just couldn’t believe it


she heard the trumpets from the military band


and the flowers fell out of her hands





Baby, why'd you leave me,


why'd you have to go


I was counting on forever


now I'll never know


I cant even breathe


It's like I'm


looking from a distance


standing in the background


Everybody's saying


he's not coming home now


This can't be happening to me


This is just a dream





The preacher man said


let us bow our heads and pray


lord please lift his soul and heal this hurt


then the congregation all stood up


and sang the sadest song that she ever heard


then they handed her a folded up flag


she held on to all she had left of him


oh and what could’ve been


and then guns rang one last shot


it felt like a bullet in her heart





Baby, why'd you leave me,


why'd you have to go


I was counting on forever


now I'll never know


I can't even breathe


It's like I'm


looking from a distance


standing in the background


Everybody's saying


he's not coming home now


This can't be happening to me


This is just a dream





Oh this is just a dream


just a dream

I love that song. Carrie Underwood sings that. It is an awesome song!!
Reply:Wow. That is amazing. Is it a song? (because it repeated, but songs are also poetry so, it could be both.)
