As I stand here in the sun, Watching kids have fun, I think of all the lives we've lost, The ones that weren't yet done. I just don't understand Why there's been such a demand For the lives Of husbands and wives, Child and pet, People we've just met. Why have they been taken? What did they do wrong? I just don't feel like breaking The hearts that once were so strong.
Reason for writing:
This poem won 3rd place in a creative writing contest, others have told me to publish it. I decided to put it in here because I want comments from other people. I wrote it because one Sunday, my sister's best friend, his brother and mother all died in a car accident on the same day that my friend's father and uncle died, (in a different car accident). We all went through hard times, and this is dedicated to them. I enjoy coments, both posative and negative, so please write.
