Terror in Boston
Lives were gone
Investigation still not done
Times like this , we must stand up and unite as one
Sadly though
We should never come together
For moments where tragedy coil and strike like a rattlesnake
That would be absolutely fake
My thoughts and prayers goes out
To all lost ones
Whose innocent lives was taken way before the time
My heart wanted to drop
When one of the victims
Was only eight
One must want to erupt anger and enrage with hate
Times like this, we must be strong right now
Gain more strength in the long run
Once the culprit has been capture
Should hang that person high up in the rapture
Where the face of horror is one all will remember
But don't think
For one single solitary second
Once it's over, people get simply move on and go back to old ways
Of treating others like crap
It will be a rap
As I always tell my students
Don't be comfortable
Be uncomfortable
Go figure what that concept means
