This poem was hard to write, and to read you'll need to be strong......
it's about a senseless trajedy, when behaviors go so wrong!
It was at "Virginia Tech", 32 innocent lives were taken....
the worse mass-killing in history, the whole nation was shaken!
Apparently a deranged young man, whos mind was lost....
went on a shooting rampage, at a horrible cost!
The victims were random, his plan was to kill....
it turned into a massacre, he shot them at will!
This was just 4 days before, the anniversary of Columbine....
when 15 souls were lost, back in nineteen ninety-nine!
There were stories of heroism, as some sacrificed their lives....
our heart goes out to all, who lost sons daughters or wives!
We all just shake our heads, with a sense of shared grief....
How could this have happened? An atrocity beyond belief!
Today, we are all Hokies, as we gather and mourne......
we share their sense of loss, and feelings of forlorn!
So we hug our loved ones closer, and take a reality check....
just know you're in our prayers, to all at "Virginia Tech" !
Coach A
