    Text till en "dikt" på engelska

    Vet inte om jag skriver i rätt ämnesgrupp, men jag vet inte var annars!
    Men jag behöver hjälp med att få rätt text på en "dikt" jag läst en gång.
    Jag tror den hette " Went to a party" och den handlade om en flicka som skerv till sin mamma efter att ha varit på en fest och vid hemgång blivit påkörd och ligger på sjukhus och håller på att dö.
    Är det någon som känner till den och som kanske har texten?
    Tack på förhand!

    WENT TO A PARTY, MUM

    I went to a party,
    And remembered what you said.
    You told me not to drink, Mom
    So I had a sprite instead.

    I felt proud of myself,
    The way you said I would,
    That I didn't drink and drive,
    Though some friends said I should.

    I made a healthy choice,
    And your advice to me was right,
    The party finally ended,
    And the kids drove out of sight.

    I got into my car,
    Sure to get home in one piece,
    I never knew what was coming, Mom
    Something I expected least.

    Now I'm lying on the pavement,
    And I hear the policeman say,
    The kid that caused this wreck was drunk,
    Mom, his voice seems far away.

    My own blood's all around me,
    As I try hard not to cry.
    I can hear the paramedic say,
    This girl is going to die.

    I'm sure the guy had no idea,
    While he was flying high,
    Because he chose to drink and drive,
    Now I would have to die.

    So why do people do it, Mom
    Knowing that it ruins lives?
    And now the pain is cutting me,
    Like a hundred stabbing knives.

    Tell sister not to be afraid, Mom
    Tell daddy to be brave,
    And when I go to heaven,
    Put "Daddy's Girl" on my grave.

    Someone should have taught him,
    That it's wrong to drink and drive.
    Maybe if his parents had,
    I'd still be alive.

    My breath is getting shorter, Mom
    I'm getting really scared.
    These are my final moments,
    And I'm so unprepared.

    I wish that you could hold me Mom,
    As I lie here and die.
    I wish that I could say, "I love you, Mom!"
    So I love you and good-bye.
