At a young age, we are taught about the world we live in, but our parents sugar coat it to an extent that we can feel safe, sheltered, and oblivious. It isn't until we are much older that we begin to see the true horrors that surround us. The world is full of surprises, you never know what to expect, but one thing is for sure, we beat death each day.

In the blink of an eye, anything can happen,

Something so awful you couldn't imagine,

He could decide to end it, the love of your life,

And it can happen in the blink of an eye,

Someone could grab you in the dark of the night,

And it can happen in the blink of an eye,

My children could be abducted, doesn't matter if they're mine,

And it can happen in the blink of an eye,

I could be taken too, tied up, no one to hear my cries,

And it can happen in the blink of an eye,

A drunk driver could kill my family, a bitter goodbye,

And it could happen in the blink of an eye,

I could be raped, by someone I know or a random guy,

And it could happen in the blink of an eye,

I could disappear, no one would know where or why,

And it could happen in the blink of an eye,

And the scariest, most inevitable fate of all, I could die,

And it could happen in the blink of an eye.
