Just A Bit Of Darkness

Dad

I was on my way to pick up my son from school

I stopped at a red light

There was a woman

The woman stared at me

She had her hand on a little boys shoulder

He had a mask on

But he was terrified

She waved at me

I didn't wave back

So she waved harder

And the boy soon joined too

But he looked miserable

They wouldn't stop waving

Soon the light turned green

I got going

They said that my kid wasn't at school

Someone picked him up

They gave me a note

"Don't say I didn't give you a chance to say goodbye"
