That Monday Night
What I wouldn't want to relive
Is a night many years ago
When a brother could run so fast
But soon his life would slow
On the turning of that corner
Out of sight he became
What happened seconds later
Two brothers future never the same
As I ran to catch him up
Horror befell my eyes
There, gone, taken by a van
To my knees I sank and cried
Momentarily I heard his screams
Then a silence echoed all around
Who would want to relive
The impact of deathly sound
