Let me tell you what happened...

About 5 years old.
She had crossed the street, without looking.
Her mother called her back
But she was running and smiling.
The driver honked the horn,
Hit the brakes.
Everyone in the bus got a scare
And fell..
He couldn't stop,
Fast enough.
So she got hit by the bus.

Quite a shocking scene..
The little girl was crying,
A woman sat by her feet,
Not crying...
Was she in one piece?
I could not see.
Were her legs shattered,
Was she internally bleeding?
I could not tell.

My next thoughts were..
Why did I see the police
But no medical help.
Whats going on,
Were they on their way
Would they be in time..
Maybe it wasn't as bad..
The woman wasn't crying..

Will she survive?
Questions filled my mind...

Let me tell you what happened...

My first thoughts..
Traffic jam,
Great, not again

My second thoughts..
An accident,
Great, not again...

Many thoughts..
What are we standing still for?
I stretched my neck
Along with the majority of the passengers
to see more,

I will tell you what I saw.
A little girl flat on the floor,
In the middle of the street.
In front of the bus.
Tears rolling down her cheeks.
Some people surrounding her,
A woman by her feet that wasn't crying.

As she laid there in front of the bus,
An entire scene played in my head,
Entirely made up.

Was she hit by the bus?
To be honest
I don't know know what happened..
I was just passing by...
