Slow Down

If only you could slow down
You see how how many things 
You have hurt.
If only you could stop rushing
You feel the pain
You have caused to others.

If only you were cautious 
You could prevent something
From getting hurt.
Cute little feathers struck down,
Breath fading away with each second. 

The eyes can't open
The wings don't flutter
There's no movement 
There's a nearing death 

Of the innocent 
Of the wild
Of the being
Of the world.
