Do You Remember?

Do you remember
when children went to school,
carrying guns, knives and bombs to kill
it was very uncool.

Today marks sixteen years
when twelve students and a teacher died,
such a horrific act played out
under tables, they did hide.

Two maniac teens opened fire
firing at anything that moved,
laughing and shooting as they went
what was it, they had to prove?

They couldn't decide what the date
but picked the day,
on the twentieth of April
it figures, it's Adolf Hitler's birthday.

I was reading a report
about what they planned to do,
planted bombs with other bookbags
and shoooting up the classrooms.

I don't take any pity on them
they were murderers in their heart,
they had this planned for a while
from this world, innocent people did depart.

Today marks sixteen years since the Columbine High School massacre. I don't take pity on those who decide to kill other people, just for the sake of killing them. It's insane.
