Fallen Victims

in #poetry7 years ago

Dedicated to those who we've lost and those who have lost:

Lump in my throat
Tear in my eye,
Tragedy surrounds us
Innocence has died.

Shoved into sorrow
By an unbelievable fate,
Small children fallen victim
By a person filled with hate.

Anger, sadness, confusion
Emotions overcome the night,
While this country mourns another loss
Our thoughts and prayers unite.

Its hard to find an expression
To wrap up how we feel,
Another unforgettable moment
Memorable as so surreal.

Cherish and hug loved ones
While we still can,
God bless those little angels
Now where they once began.

I hope you enjoyed my poem. I wrote this when my emotions were heightened by yet another senseless act. Please upvote if you are like me and wish the violence would stop. Thank you. Blessings.
