I heard your cries
I heard your cries I heard your cries every night. Your screams echos in my mind, they haunt me. Today in the newspaper they listed you as" dead ". I couldn't belive it. I just thought that if I ignored it, if I just drowned out the screams it would just go away. I thought only old people died, after all you were only 10 years old. I sat next to you in homeroom, you always kept your head down, and hardly ever made eye contact. I made it my personal goal to make you smile. When you finally did I was so happy. As time went on by I began to like you and form a bond. Your death hit me like a punch to the stomach. I visualize your face, your smile, heard your laughter. Today I went to your funeral, I saw your family and friends. You would not belive how many people loved you. written by....Rachel W Age 16
