So young.

So much life

So much promise

So much love.

Taken

Suddenly

By those who had not the right.

What might have been

Is what was to be

And what once was

Will never be again.

Gone.

Tears fall

But these cannot bring a lost child back

Nor can the grief and the sorrow

Of cheated parents.

Anger burns

Boils

Seethes

But the ones responsible

Are not worthy of punishment.

Worthy only

Of forgiveness.
