So quick it comes

Never really expected

Such harsh things done

And we feel like we’ve lost it.

Feelings of dread

Of bad happenings

Afraid of waiting

For the call of death.

Why does this happen?

Such quick reactions.

When tragedy strikes

Here tonight

We sit and pray

Want the pain to go away.

Such disruption

To this peaceful life

Why elongate time?

Distractions;

These feelings kept away.

Prayers;

Keep them safe.
