The child's apology

The child's apology

Feb 06, 2025

I'm sorry for closing the door
For not saying I love you once more

I'm sorry I won't come home
I'm sorry I can't watch you grow old
I'm sorry you'll cry

Trying to blame yourself the rest of your life
Wishing this was a lie
Wanting to embrace me one more time

Can't go back now
Sorry 6feet under the ground

I'll remeber that faithful day
You'll remember that faithful day
I'll never forget the pain
I'm sorry to you both

Feel my love even if I'm a ghost 
The love will always last
But that school day was my last

I remember the first bang
Everyone started running my way
The screams rang out
Body's falling all around

Then mine went down
No where to run now
I saw the light as my eyes closed
I heard the bangs and screams
As I fell into an eternal dream

To the graduation I'll never get
To the wedding I'll never get to have
To the friends I'll never get to meet
To the New Year I'll never get to see

I'm sorry

Please note this isn’t based of personal experience or anything I've been fortunate enough to never have experienced something like this I simply wrote what I thought a victim of a school shooting might want to say to their parents because to many kids don't get to go home.

The gun laws in my country are quite strict so I’ve only heard of one or two shootings occurring and can’t even imagine having to worry about getting shot at while in school
