20 Angels Too Many

A cold December when a heart ceased to love
Filled with hate and evil
When lovely angels
6 to 7 year olds tamed
By one with a cold and mad life

These 20 children
In classrooms
Not unlike my own
Confronted him with the truth of His aimless wandering he found acceptance of himself in his vision of power

His deadly guns

He marched into 2 classrooms
Like a tainted soldier of war
Aiming to take that from those
Who's heavenly contrast
Fell against his hellish life

With his deadly weapons
He massacred the angels
Their guardians
And the lives of parents
Friends
Grandparents
Communities
All around the globe
Wherever the news spread
This atrocity known
As people continue their flood of pain.

20 angels too many
Taken too soon.

I offer my condolences to the families, members of the communities and all those connected to the school.

Latrodectus

@Latrodectus

Hi, I'm Latrodectus, but you can call me Lat. I'm 14 and I love to write. I write at least 1 or 2 times a week and write everything from acrostics to opinion posts (and everything in-between) I'm also writing my first ever book/full story "The Darkworld Chronicles." I write to help find myself and who I really am and to help me deal with life's problems and stresses. I like drawing, acting, singing and gymnastics but don't like algebra, sport or swimming. My interests vary wildly (as do my works) and I feel it gives me some variety. Thanks for reading this, have fun in my world of writing :) ~Lat

Twenty flowers pulled up. Ripped out. Cruelly plucked. A garden less beautiful. Just dirt where they stood. Twenty fires put out. Smothered. Stamped to the ground. The world a little darker.

20 Twinkling Stars, Shining

A dark man, in a dark land, with a dark hand; delivering darkness. In a dark land, a dark hand; delivering darkness. From a dark hand; darkness. As dark as night, darker still; as dark as death.

The Innocent 26

Innocence taken in the blink of an eye, all the mourning in the world will not relieve my cry. Children and educators taken without remorse, uncontrolled evil of man, such a regretful course.

This is too sad. I cried while reading this. I can't imagine what it would feel like to go through this.

I cried so hard when I heard this happened. This poem is beautiful.
