Do you hear them? No. Because you can't. They died; so long ago, and yet, so recently. Their voices forever silenced. By the gun that went; BANG. So many lives lost with no reason as to why. They left us; their friends, their family, their classmates, their fellow citizens. Wondering why. Why did they leave us so soon, those affected by gun violence? They are all around us, students, families of victims, that kid you shot in the street, those who committed suicide, all of them; human. All of them gone. Never to be heard from again.

Where They Used to Be
Do you hear them? No. Because you can't. They died; so long ago, and yet, so recently. Their voices forever silenced. By the gun that went; BANG. So many lives lost with no reason as to why. They left us; their friends, their family, their classmates, their fellow citizens. Wondering why. Why did they leave us so soon, those affected by gun violence? They are all around us, students, families of victims, that kid you shot in the street, those who committed suicide, all of them; human. All of them gone. Never to be heard from again.
A tribute to those who lost their lives, loved ones, and those who are affected by gun violence.
