I Am Really Sorry
Children were on holidays,
They were rounding on a table for dinner,
She finished her cooking and came to join them,
She served meal carefully and happily.
Suddenly someone knocked at the door,
She was astonished to see him at the door.
Are you alright? She smiled to ask him
Children came and made a noise to see dad.
We want to go to the beach, they shouted,
Weather was sunny and family was happy,
Although he wasn’t feeling very well,
But he was agreeing to go for their happiness.
Beech was only two hours away from home,
She made sandwiches, and packed all suits,
And asked to buy drink from a nearest store,
He parked his car and asked to her wife for go.
Suddenly she heard a noise of bullets,
Everyone ran out from the store,
Blood was everywhere and frightened people,
They were waiting for police.
Her husband had died at the spot and children,
Two had died in hospital and third,
She was paralysed form a leg,
A bright day has getting darker for her life.
Today was Christmas she received a card,
Someone wrote to her, I am really sorry,
I had opened a fire mistakenly,
I came to kill someone he wasn’t your family.
