...

There was blood on his face

Around his mouth

Blood was surrounding all of him

 

He had his eyes closed

His shirt was ripped open

He didn't breath

 

They tried to help him

They tried to save his life

They tried to make him come back

 

The people around him could't stop looking

Neither could I driving past sitting in the bus

And it stopped there forcing me to look at him

 

The blood

The open shirt

The closed eyes

 

I saw a man die today....

Whoever you were I hope that angels took good care of you...

May you rest in peace.

My thoughts goes out to this man and his family, I hope nobody ever needs to see something like this.
