For : Sofia Rodriguez-Urrutia


It took only ten minutes
to tear down your eight years

of building a person


A small white casket
to mark your passing

In Mater Christi
500 weep
raising your lifelessness
above and beyond the
base destruction of your glow.

Six little girls in angels wings
dance down the aisle
to carry you away

Flowers
dying in the gritty
halls of a mall
against the door of
a toilet


I
mourn innocence

How could I not, have you seen the pictures of her?, she was the epitome of an innocent child Moon,I cannot quite cope with what her last moments on this earth would have been like....


It honestly breaks my heart

Yes.
I know.
It's beyond words
there are such monsters walking the earth

dark ones Moon?

I wonder....
