Was it?

HI, Mogra, welcome. Smile Some of this is really well done, you might want to edit a little. Here are some notes.

Sreech, skid, bang, crash, thump screech
Crumpled metal and shattered dreams
Screams of pain ,a voice forever silenced backspace the comma, though I think you could lose this line, the next one says it all so well, and it would bring shattered and scattered a bit closer together.
Shards of glass scattered in scarlet pools

Whisps of smoke
fleeing skyward
trying in vain
to outrace the pain
left by one now absent awkward last line, you could do better

Casts on arms and legs
Yet what can heal this might be better not as a question, but something that evokes that feeling
a broken heart
Replace a bright soul?

Falling tears, heartbreaking wails
thud of earth on casket
lowered for one final embrace
not of loved ones
but
of
cold
dark
earth
I loved the thud and the feeling of being lowered, I don't know that you need "not of loved ones but"

And all because, I don't think you need this line
of temper unchecked
A desire to win!
Was it worth it...
Was it worth it?
Was it?

If you changed the title to ""Was it worth it?" you could cut the last 3 lines to make the ending stronger.
Of course, just my opinion, I enjoyed the read.
