Shot Away Dreams
A joyful life was meant to be
Part of my future destiny
Filled with lots of dreams and hope
I was planning to elope
With the one who stole my heart
Special moments not forgot
Staying with you every minute
That your mind and soul will give it
Now those dreams do not exist
Just words upon a lonely list
That will never be fulfilled
Since a gunman shot and killed
The future hopes from under me
My whole world gone instantly
Songs are sung and prayers are said
As dark thoughts fill up my head
Seeing you fall slowly down
Blood is splattered all around
Holding you till your last breath
Tightly in my arms to catch
One last touch and loving feel
Before it becomes too real
Sinking in that you are gone
When I wake to a new dawn
Without the love that I adore
In my heart forever more
Knowing there will always be
An angel watching over me
