And Now Your Gone

Life
Just won't be the same...
You have played the game...

You didn't win

You
Strived to reach the top
And you wouldn't stop

But this evil scheme
It killed your dream


Chorus:
*Shot in all commotion
Distraught and emotional

They dragged you home...

Best friends since the day we met
I said you'll be fine, don't you ever fret

You died in my arms

And now your gone....*

Your
family was cryin'
didn't know that you were dyin'

**

And now your gone...

Author's Note

To the victims of the Connecticut shooting.

I don't know the tune to this song but it's rather slow. I guess you can kind of put it to the tune of "You are Beautiful" but I don't think of the possibility much.

A fitting tribute to the victims of the shooting. It expresses the feelings well. I can't imagine what those families are going through.

:'( The shooting was so incredibly sad and terrible. This was a beautiful song/poem.
"Your

[David Scott]

I am not able to address this issue emotionally right now...
Too fresh and too real for me...
Hard to imagine. I don't want to. Not now... Not yet.

By Jason Maraz? It would fit the tune a little bit, lovely and sad..but good

[Phillitup]

no...I don't know who the artist is but it's Jason Mraz. He's awesome though.

[ℰmerald ⚓]

James Blunt! ...that's his name..I was thinking of "i'm yours".

[misha]

This was such a terrible tragedy. You did a great job of showing the emotions of those who went through this. Such a sad tragedy but you did a great job of writing those emotions into a piece of poetry.

[Savior of Time]

It's beautifully dark. It's wonderful you are showing support. I loved it.
