The Sad News
January 9, 2014
They came at the door
Knocks came upon the door
The door was opening
The men standing there
Holding out a letter
The women dropping to the floor crying
Kids running down the stairs
Seeing what was happening
Hearing the broken hearts
Wiping away the shattered tears
Everything was breaking down right in front of you
The worst thing that happened was you never got to say goodbye
