The Victim of a Senseless Murder

Throw me to the ground

Kick me when I'm down

Blood is all around

I'm staring at the clouds

Try to figure out

What just happened now

Fading in and out

My body's shutting down

 

Distant sirens sound

Hear me crying out

Closure so profound

It's getting colder now

 

People all around

Melancholy sounds

Loved ones broken down

My flame has been snuffed out

 

 

Author's Notes/Comments: 

The article below is where I got my inspiration for this one. It's about a senseless murder of a 5 year old boy who was shot by his neighbor. I wanted to pay tribute to that event.
