My body quakes remembering the day that boy past away;
The sound of the shot that took his life away;
The pain in his eyes took my gaze away;
He lie there gasping for life when my sister pulled me body away;
And now I lay as a reoccurring image that seeps my dreams away;
What hath been given can be taken away;
Remembrance of the quote had my heart at ache;
No tears can come close to reflecting this pain;
When a boy lay in the sky's blanket of darkness shielding this cruel display;
