THREW A BIKERS EYES
|
I
saw you pull your child closer when we passed
each other on the sidewalk.
But
you didn't see me playing Santa at the local
mall.
I
saw you change your mind about going into the
restaurant.
But
you didn't see me attending a meeting to raise
more money for the hurricane relief.
I
saw you roll up your window and shake your head
when I drove by.
But
you didn't see me riding
behind you when you flicked your cigarette butt
out the car window.
I
saw you frown at me when I smiled at your
children.
But
you didn't see me when I took time off from work
to run toys to the homeless.
I
saw you stare at my long hair.
But
you didn't see me when I cut
ten inches off for Locks of Love.
I
saw you roll your eyes at our
leather coats and gloves.
But
you didn't see me and my brothers donate our old
coats and gloves to those that had none.
I
saw you look in fright at my tattoos.
But
you didn't see me cry as my children where born
and have their name written over my
heart.
I
saw you change lanes while rushing off to go
somewhere.
But
you didn't see me going home to be with my
family.
I
saw you complain about how loud and noisy our
bikes can be.
But
you didn't see me when you were changing the CD
and drifted into my lane.
I
saw you yelling at your kids in the car.
But
you didn't see me pat my child's hands, knowing
he was safe behind me.
I
saw you reading the newspaper or
talking on your phone
as you drove down the road.
But
you didn't see me squeeze my wife's leg when she
told me to take the next turn.
I
saw you race down the road in the rain.
But
you didn't see me get soaked to the skin so my
son could have the car to go on his date.
I
saw you run the yellow light just to save a few
minutes of time.
But
you didn't see me trying to turn right
I
saw you cut me off because you needed to be in
the lane I was in.
But
you didn't see me leave the road.
I
saw you waiting impatiently for my friends to
pass.
But
you didn't see me. I wasn't there.
I
saw you go home to your family.
But
you didn't see me. Because, I died
that day you cut me off.
I
WAS JUST A BIKER. A person with friends and a
family.
But
you didn't see me.
Repost this around in hopes that people will
understand the biker community
Share the road, be aware.
I'm
tired of my Brothers getting killed for
America's right to drive badly!
