Black and White...Right?

About the power we have over one another.

seconds tick by
and life goes on
in a pretty black and white picture.
so easy
so simple.
we have the power
to shut off a person
turn them inside out
and walk away.
as seconds tick by
and life goes on
in a pretty black and white picture.
we can walk away
cast people aside
pretend they don't cry
without sorrow
without regret.
as seconds tick by
and life goes on
in a pretty black and white picture.
we never have to know
if we don't want to.
