Hello Mr. mustang


Hello Mr. mustang, please don’t text while you drive

Unless of course you are ready to die

In that case please don’t do it here

When children and innocent people are near

For not everyone is prepared for their death

Not everyone has just breathed their last breath

But keep driving around with your head in your phone

And the odds are quite likely that you won’t get home

It’s people like you that could get someone killed

It’s people like you that end with blood spilled

So please stop your texting or get caught by a cop

I’m sure whoever is talking can wait til you stop

I'm a Grad student now studying Biochemistry and Biophysics (not sure how I got there). I guess I've been using this site for nearly 8 years now though sometimes I went years without writing much of anything. I write what I feel and I write what I need to let go of. Sometimes I write about a dream or a nightmare I had, If I can tell the difference. I fell in love for poetry in high school and continued to write in college. I hope to publish a book someday as well (leave a comment if a poem speaks to you). P.S. My Instagram is @CottonCandyPoems
