My thoughts...
Twas the night after the Sandy Hook massacre and all through my home, I couldn’t do anything but grieve, I felt so alone.
26 dead, 20 of them so small...
to their families it was just yesterday, they had learned how to crawl.
So senseless an act, no words can explain,
their lives cut so short, it all was in vain.
What form of evil can possess a person’s mind,
he can’t be a person, perhaps a devil of some kind.
Just little children, such babies who will never know,
what life is about, they had no chance to grow.
It’s impossible to perceive such a horrific act,
it’s not enough to say that he just must have cracked.
Forget about the politics, gun control or analyzing why,
we need to think of the families, the parents and those saying goodbye.
So many in this country wanted God out of school,
now they are the ones praying, they are the fool.
Oh so much death, Oklahoma, Columbine and then 9/11,
we've cursed, we've cried, let us all just pray they’re in heaven.
The night before Christmas is a poem we all know,
these children won’t have it, it’ll never be so.
