An Ode To Amy

A senseless act of destruction As he walked through the train Eyes searching random faces Aimlessly brought death and pain. No rhyme or reason to the gore All colors and races did he choose His rage was not stopped before He looked at her, shot her once. Out of her death a life was saved And a piece of her still lives on Her organs were given by her family And with her gift my pain was gone.
