I
killed you today,
but
only once,
only
for a second,
that's
all it took.
Just
one mistake
from
you,
and
a little help
from
me.
The
right lane
was
not moving.
It
was full.
Full
of right turners.
The
center lane
it
was flying,
flying
like a bird.
I
was one of those birds.
And
then you were
flying
too.
So
what kind of fool
crosses
traffic only if
they
can see that
no
one is coming?
A
live one.
And
what kind of fool
would
cross even if
they
could not see,
see
the thing that would
end
their life.
A
dead one.
Five
tons of truck,
40
miles in an hour.
Two
tons of car,
pulled
right into the path.
No
time to stop,
no
time to say goodbye,
no
time for anything,
but
to die.
Physics,
physics,
and
life, then death.
So
here I sit,
wondering
why,
why
you picked
this
day to die,
and
here I sit,
wondering
why,
why
you used me,
to
help you die.
But
don't thank me,
the
memories of it,
I'm
sure will be
all
the thanks
I
will ever need.
Day
and night,
night
and day,
till
time ends,
because,
I
killed you today.
