This poem is about my son who was tragically killed by Coach USA bus driver Wilson Romaine who was speed and jumped the curb where my son stood. My son was at the front door banging to get on the bus. Romaine refused to stopped thee bus, instead he looked at my son and continued to drive the bus in a reckless manner. Romaine was operating NJ Transit bus 709. He was never charged.

 The Final Goodbye

When we laid your body to rest
agony of pain enters into my chest.

I started to cry and scream 
wishing that this was all a dreadful dream. 

But in my eyes I saw it was true
I just wish it was not you.

I never envision the day
that you will be so viciously taken away.

You were young and full of fun
now your life was taken away instantly from me, my beloved son.

Your years on this earth is far too few
and your life was taken horrifically too soon from you.

You should have been allowed to live 
since you had a lot to give.

The horrific images in my mind on how you die I
keep asking myself over and over again why? 

It is hard for the pain to relinquish from my soul
and keep my mind from being mentally whole.

While your murder is walking free.
The final goodbye is killing me.
