"17"
We all end up gone.
Damned to oblivion.
I didn't know so soon.
Everything gone.
Student.
Shout into the void.
Required.
Safe place.
Running to swings.
To my classes.
A good student.
The calm.
My safe place gone.
Safe so I thought.
A second home,
Second family,
My teachers,
My classmates,
My coaches,
My best friend.
Gone.
Kids.
Students.
Adults.
Teachers.
Did you see targets?
All labor turned to ashes.
