&quot;A man who won&#039;t die for something is not fit to live.&quot;<br /> -Martin Luther King, Jr.


The sadness in my heart
Pains me deeply
The sadness around me
Fills the air bitterly

The shock I feel
Cannot be explained
The shock that attacked me
Keeps my happiness detained

The river of tears
Will not flow
For there are no tears
For my eyes to bestow

I feel that no tears will come
For there are none left
Not a single drop of tear
For the pain has put too much heft

I hate the pain, I hate the strife
I hate the violence, I hate the deaths
If only we could all live in a world
Without having to worry about our final breaths

To the Children and Adults of Sandy Hook
I give you all this
May God tender your hearts dearly
And have a Merry Christmas
