See Light Through Tragedy

In reminder and memoriam to what happened on Wednesday (August 26th) with the reporters, this is my view on the situation… to find light in the darkness even though darkness exists. Enjoy!

---

Sick and twisted minds
Wreak havoc while we’re blind
Causing tragedy and mayhem,
Which is such a travesty
Because sometimes, people don’t see evil as a fallacy…

So many innocent lives taken at the blink of an eye
To a point where I wish someone would start an effective revolution
Finding a solution to the madness
Stopping these criminals from terrorizing our beauty,
As a place once happy mourns with sorrow…

No one wants to fall
And lose it all
To one who never deserved to exist
And doesn't even deserve to spit
Is now only a waste of space or now gone…

Who would want such a thing to happen
Powerful enough to spark a worldwide phenomenon?
It will be a painful recovery,
Doable when everyone comes together,
But we can't wait on the world to change…

This happens way too often
Someone should have stepped in to help
In order to prevent people from seeing the red in the world

Some people think life is a Cinderella story,
But bring a weapon and it will turn into your worst nightmare…
Life is beautiful,
But shouldn't be viewed with a veil

This day will live in infamy
Along with the other days filled with sick and twisted tragedy
But why do we think as such?
We still need to see the good above the evil,
But don’t disregard the black…

As we pray for peace and try to find joy,
We wish for infinite protection
And come together
To band as one
Providing a safe haven
For those who suffered
Providing comfort
To those who are now feeling despair
In a sick and twisted tragedy…

Find a way to fight evil!
Find a way to fight all fears!
We can say we're going to fight,
But we actually have to fight to win!

We can act!
We can change the world!
We can't bring people back,
But we can continue to pay it forward
And advocate kindness and pure heart!

We can continue to be reminded of life's beauty,
And take a moment,
To see the light
Past this sick and twisted tragedy!
