The Difference Later

Walking down the street,
I see a little girl smiling up at me.

Four years old,
blonde hair,
blue eyes cold,

So sweet,
Young,
And innocent,

But,
One day,
Reality will reach her.

And everything will change.

Little boy,
Oh so cute,

Laughin' and playin,'
With his little toy bulldozers,

But,
One day,
Reality will reach him-

He will run into a big "bulldozer,"
And it will be how he decides to handle it,
That will,
Change everything.
