Child in the playground sitting in the sand
Adult on the street corner waving a taxi with her hand
Child in awe at all the world has to offer
Adult too caught up in work to even bother
Child letting its laughter echo through the sky
Adult gets home from work and loosens up his tie
Child with no cares or a thing to worry about
Adult worrying constantly making themselves stressed-out
Child too content with the present to think of what comes next
Adult makes even the simplest situations overly complex
Child taking a walk down his favorite street
Adult, driving and talking on cell phone- trying to be discrete
Child looks around and thinks the road is clear
Adult, still talking, speeds up and shifts gears
Child sees the perfect opportunity to walk
Adult driving faster now and continuing to talk
Child struck by a corvette
Adult- still unaware of the damage she’s done yet
Child- dead- “it happened so fast , he didn’t feel any pain”
Adult stumbling over words and trying to explain
Child is a pile of blood, organs, and broken bones
Adult, hears a distant voice and hangs up her cell phone
Child, life over, one less member of a family
Adult... discovers she’s what’s wrong with humanity
