Why are things
in this life ment to be
How can someone end a life
so easily
Who is he to choose
who stay and goes
Where did god take him
nobody knows
A life so short
and young at heart
A life that ended
before it could start
A child of life
with no one to guide
A child in strife
With no where to hide
His dad said
he'd made him mad
I screamed back
Your no man nor a dad
What monster could do this
To his own flesh and blood
And leave his sons body
face down in the mud
To see a friend fall
where we use to roam
The look in his eyes
and nobodies home
