3:30 am, I hear a cry,
My sisters had a bad dream.
I can't help but wonder why.
Yes, it was a nightmare
But not of the dream sort,
This one was reality,
Though I wish it were not.
Another young life taken away,
The sadness fills my heart,
Such a waste of someone's life,
A family torn apart.
4:47 we sit together,
Looking at the light
Of a house that's lost a son, a brother
On this awful night.
The town once more faces tragedy,
But it's strength will never cease,
We'll stick together to get through it all,
Jordan, rest in peace.
