  My tears fall uncontrollably
My heart is splitting in two
The news of this tragedy
Feels like D”e ja”vu  

As still I have not forgotten Columbine
How could this happen again
All of our progress and advance
Will this be the legacy of man

The normal arguments will arise
Gun control and the amendment rights
But Evil doesn’t yield to any laws
And it delights in our arguments and fights

Yes this horrible event was Evil
But there was Evil to him that pre-seeded
And his head was in a different state
His mental rationality was long defeated

You can make all the laws you want
But the laws will always fail
And until we teach our children love
Stories like this we’ll always tell

God must be allowed back into the
Schools and our heart
We must begin a new narrative
We must find a way to make a new start

So as we morn the for those lost
And Heaven receives 21 new Angels
We need to devise a battle plan
And carefully cover all the angles

In the meantime we must immediately
Allow armed soldiers to protect and serve
This will bring comfort and peace and
It’s what our children deserve

As I bring this poem to a close
And my tears continue to flow
Please join me in prayer and pray
This horror future children never know

Take some time, this I ask from
Just not one person but from everybody
Find a way some how to send your love
To all of the people of Uvalde
