On Your Phone

If you drive and use your mobile phone.

Someone you kill will not be going home.

It might be a child that you don't know

But your on you phone your reaction is slow

It might be a family crossing the road by walking

But you didn't see them because on your phone
You were talking.

It might be a a friend on your phone for a chat

But you just killed a pensioner by knocking them flat

You might be your on the phone in your lorry

But for the people you just killed it to late to say Sorry.
