A Life Erased

Shots ring out

Bullets fly true

People shout

Death is due

Falling to the ground

Blood spurting red

The heart has no sound

The boy is dead

The silence of the night

Tears begin to fall

Fear in sight

Mourners call

Empty ground

Casket full

Flowers abound

Emotions dull

Dirt thrown in

Headstone placed

Lost in sin

A life erased
