We have found in such a heartless world ,
the destruction without a care puts us in a whirl.
For those filled with rage never took the time,
to hear her her last words as she died.
Flowers in hand is what the mothers see ,
the little angel taken from me .
Who could be so heartless with a soul so black ,
to run down an angels then go right on past.
There are roots that runs from the guilty today ,
how the public stands and does nothing just stare they say.
Did they hear her cry and did it ever reach their hearts ,
I think not for they refused to take part.
Her very soul walks about the crowd ,
taking note of the uncaring and so drapes upon them a shroud.
A tombstone for the living so one day they may see ,
as heaven passes them by just as they did me.

Touching
Its really sad that this is happening around us...
But very few people take time and think about it.
Really deep and heartfelt!
My fav paragraph was the last one and in that too speacially the last two lines,
"A tombstone for the living so one day they may see ,
as heaven passes them by just as they did me."
Good luck in the contest.
Take care
