Life is about those now or never moments

Another POP
We need the SWAT
Another senseless death
Another wasted breath
There goes kids oh so innocent
To their parents they were heaven sent
Now a puzzle is missing its final piece
A family will never be complete
Most just say and do as they please
But they don't know the effects of their tease
Some get humbled and their words deplete
But the trigger hand will never yell defeat

This poem is about the Columbine school shooting. I don't want people to ever forget that this happened and that bulling caused the whole shooting.
