Blind Cause

One day you get hit by a bus 
and roll around in pain 
but people didn't see the bus 
and say stop acting lame 

bad things will happen to you 
and nobody will see it 
they will observe your reaction 
and judge the way you're being 

ignorance towards the cause 
dismissing the reality 
aware though as emotions pour 
questioning your sanity 

focusing on your behaviour 
not calm not cool not canny 
the cause of it remains a stranger 
they judge on what they can see
