School Shootings

Is life not more precious Than to shoot up a school Trying to figure it out Yet what is the exception to the rule Those are someone's children That you shot Just because you were Feeling less than not This doesn't give you the right To take someone else's child This leaves so many hurt and beguiled Why put a bullet in someone Else's head Why leave innocent children slain And dead All of these school shootings Who will protect our young Please excuse me if I don't hold my tongue This is a topic that really Needs discussion Because it has become A monumental interruption Why would I write about the Moon, stars and the planet's When children's blood Is being spilled like pomegranates So much lost But at what cost
