A
Birthday to Remember
Harrit today turned sweet 16,
she had this day planned out for years.
A limo, a cake, a garden dance,
her happiness had caused tears.
"Everything will be perfect", as all her dreaming
came true.
She would dance with Billy,
with his blond hair and eyes of blue.
When night had fallen,
everyone came to the dance.
Harrit and Billy danced first,
and on the clouds she pranced.
She was going to cry of happiness,
but then there was a scream of fright.
Then gunshots were heard not too far away,
then two men stepped into the light.
They both had a gun,
and one shot Billy down.
Harrit screamed as loud as she could,
but suddenly, she couldn't make a sound.
She was shot in the stomach,
and out came streams of red.
Her sweet 16th birthday was ruined,
and she would soon be dead.
She cried to the Lord,
"Why me? Why now?"
She was then taken from the world on her special
day,
how this bad happen to good? how? |
