Loss of an Innocent

• Artist: Rozoko
• Description: A poem I had published during my junior year of high school (Graduated as part of class of 2008 this year!). We lost one of our beloved classmates in a car crash... I will not give a detailed story about it as it is not something that I should really talk about here... I'll let the poem tell the rest. Note: I had it published originally on poetry.com My name's at the end of the poem so feel free to look up some more works of mine that I will eventually get to posting on here.

Dedicated To: Michelle Lemiux


Death is a pain that none can deny.
Feeling this pain may cause one to cry.
Fair is never a term to describe such tragedy.
Only the sorrow exists, that's all we can see.
A cold moment, letting out the very last sigh.
In that ever still moment, they die.
A fate so common that all of us share.
A fate of which we all despair.
Why is it that the good die young?
Why can the wicked wait for the bell to toll?
The bell tolls for thy life.
Come forth to thy loved ones, sorrow and strife.
Come quickly to thy aid, angels from the heavens.
Come and erase all thy sins.
Make haste, angels, lest the devil steal her soul.
She deserves not to pay such a toll.
May she rest peacefully in the heavens so they can say,
"We will see each other again another day."
