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

Dark
