Sea of blood and tears

by Latasha   Mar 22, 2006


No one knew it was your time,
Everyone thought we'd see you graduate,
But everything happened all so quickly.
Your body fell from the sky,
Only to leave you lifeless on the payment.
Your body drowned in a sea of blood,
As people gathered 'round.
Everyone wanted to hold you close,
And tell you they loved you.
Your face is now just a distant memory,
And your voice has went faint.
Tears pour down everyones face,
As they think back to how you were supposed to be here.
You were supposed to get you diploma today,
And drink a few beers tonight,
But now your in a better place,
Looking down on us,
And smiling as we do what you thought you'd do someday.

**RIP Derek Propp... I wasn't in his graduation class but I know many ppl that where...**

    There was a girl in a class below me that died in 04, her name was Lizzy. She was a friend of mine, I think about her all the time.

    how did Derek die? Lizzie was ran into a tree.

    some possible titles- I try to blend the subject of the poem with important words in the poem.

    1. Concrete blood
    2. Death Diploma
    3. Sea of blood and tears

    I don't think they are great titles, but hey I tried....
