Gone.

There was no way for him to know
Was it even preventable?No.
Gone.

I wish I'd spoken to him more.
He may have been one I adore.
If only he'd come to school tha day,
Maybe the Lord wouldn't have taken him away.
Gone.

But fate has a twisted way of working things.
No one knows what it will bring.
Now everyone could feel the tears in the family's eyes
And feel the lost pain in the victim's cries.
Gone.

No one knew what to think, except that it was unfair.
Maybe if they were friendlier he'd still be there.
He left with no friends
What a way for life to end.
Gone.
